"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don’t mean to do harm, but the harm [that they cause] does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.”
~ TS Eliot, The Cocktail Party
(And he changed, and you're going to change as well, because that's just what happens, eventually!)
(Found as a result of an interesting online experience.)
(It was also pointed out that sometimes people are intentionally causing harm, which is a bit more complicated.)
