    Well, what is this?
    What am I coming to?
    And beyond that, what am I gonna do?
    Now there’s blankness
    Where once your eyes held light
    But that was so long ago
    That was last night

    Well, what is this?
    What’s that sound I hear?
    It’s just my lifetime
    It’s whistling past my ear
    And when I look back
    Everything seems smaller than life
    The way it’s been for so long
    Since last night

    Now I am leaving
    Any moment I’ll be gone
    I think you’ll notice
    I think you’ll wonder what went wrong
    I’m not chosing
    But I’m running out of fight
    And this was decided long ago
    It was last night . . .

    In the past century many people have assumed that we are shaped by our environment: a blank slate waiting to be inscribed by upbringing and culture, with innate abilities playing little part.

    This view denies the heart of our being: human nature. We are prepared for sex, aggression and jealousy – and also love, compassion and reason. Violence is not just a product of society; male and female minds are different; the genes we give our children shape them more than our parenting practices. To acknowledge our nature, Pinker shows, is not to condone inequality or callousness, but ultimately to understand the very foundations of humanity.

    Self-Importance prevents a person from seeing the the value in others. Self-Confidence empowers a person to seek out the value in others.
