" I do think that it is very important for people to make the effort to get to know themselves better ... but the difference now, is that in the age of Socrates, you did not have competition and now you have competition. 2000 years ago if you did not make the effort to get to know yourself better, you were still a black box to the rest of humanity.

 

But now you have all these corporations and governments that, as we speak, they are trying to hack you. And if they reach a point, and they are very close to the point, when they know you, better than you know yourself they will be able to basically sell you anything they want, whether it's a product or politician. And that's very dangerous. "
