"we project our own sense of sinfulness onto others" circle of atonement projection is a strange phenomenon. steinbeck said some really rad stuff. i find reading his quotes very inspirational.
"We have never understood why men mount the heads of animals and hang them up to look down on their conquerers. Possibly it feels good to these men to feel superior to animals, but does it not seem that if they were sure of it they would not have to prove it? Often a man who is afraid must constantly demonstrate his courage and, in the case of the hunter, must keep a tangible record of his courage." ~ John Steinbeck (1902-1968) American novelist
