Or more correctly, they can know something when they really think about it, but most of the time they don't think about it, so they don't know it.

“Seorang manusia tidak dapat bertahan terhadap kekalahan ganda. Itu adalah rahasia dari upaya mereka yang berkesinambungan untuk mendapatkan kekuasaan. Mereka mendapatkan suatu perasaan keunggulan dari kekuasaan mereka terhadap orang lain. Hal ini membuat mereka merasa menang daripada menderita kekalahan. Jadi tersembunyi kenyataan betapa kosongnya mereka itu dari dalam, sekalipun terhadap kesan kebesaran yang mereka usahakan menyebarluaskan ke sekeliling mereka. Satu-satunya hal yang mereka inginkan.”
