We believe in equality - among people, things; proportion in every
aspect of life. But when you really give it a thought, the machinery of this
world can only function in inequality. Unless there is weight on both sides of
the measuring scale, it will never be in balance. What if there is no prey and
every animal on this planet is a predator? It will only lead to chaos. Every
animal will fight fiercely, day and night, to either establish dominance or
not be defeated. That will become the way of life, setting in a chaotic order
in the world. Imagine if there were no poor people in this world, and everybody
was rich. There would be no growth at all in the society; there would only be
stagnation. Who will work for whom? Who would aspire to grow? Who would nurture
a genuine ambition? Only the badness in this world can show you what goodness
can be. He who is poor will desire to be rich. He who is rich will only become
more greedy. That would lead to fall of order in the human society. There would
be no followers and thus no leaders. It is in the inequality of things in this
world where one finds the spirit and drive to break it.
