“It is extremely dangerous to encourage people to see themselves as exceptional whatever the motivation.”
— Vladimir Putin
Simplified Meaning:
When people start thinking they are better than everyone else, it can lead to major problems. For example, if a student always believes they are the smartest in the class, they might stop studying or helping others. This attitude can create a bad environment and make others feel less important. In history, leaders who thought their country was the best often went to war, causing lots of suffering. It's important to be confident, but also to be humble and recognize that everyone has value. Instead of seeing yourself as exceptional, try to work with others and learn from them. This way, everyone can grow and succeed together.
