Yes I know this "wisdom" I have heard it from the most "successful" man in history.

"Man's highest joy is in victory: to conquer one's enemies; to pursue them; to deprive them of their possessions; to make their beloved weep; to ride on their horses; and to embrace their wives and daughters."

Genghis Khan


I reject this "highest joy" and the worship of nature. We have the potential for so much more.
