There's a real correlation between a society that tells people that they can do anything, and the existence of low self-esteem. So that's another way in which something quite positive can have a nasty kickback. There is another reason why we might be feeling more anxious --about our careers, about our status in the world today, than ever before. And it's, again, linked to something nice. And that nice thing is called meritocracy.

社会源于我们的需求，政府产自我们的邪恶。前者通过凝聚我们的友爱，积极地增进我们的幸福，后者通过遏制我们的恶行，消极地促进我们的福祉。前者鼓励交往，后者制造差别。前者是庇护人，后者是惩罚者。

I don't need to be perfect. I just need to be me.
