If we are ever to win the deadliest war, we must learn constructive ways to deal with our differences.
There are victories of the soul and spirt.
Sometimes, even if you lose, you win.
It doesn't matter if you win or lose, or even how you play the game: it only matters how good you look! *wink*
The zero-sum game: that's the way it is if you're a competitive person and you see capitalism in that way. Zero-sum game implies winners and losers which I don't agree with. Somebody has to win and somebody has to lose, it all comes back to zero (minus eight, plus eight). But I don't agree with that because all boats can rise on a rising sea. Good films can help other films to be open. There's a different psychology at work. If you're overly competitive, you'll be exclusionary and say it's a zero-sum game (I must get eight and he must lose eight). Gekko simplifies it down to a painting. He says he bought this painting or this building for X and he sold it for Y and he made that profit and he assumes that somebody else got beat, but that's not necessarily true. You don't always lose.
I am not bound to win, I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to the light I have.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
