Men have always fancied themselves gods. Always. The only thing, the only evidence that could debunk this conviction was the stark reminder that they were born. This fact, this pesky fact. Physically born, from something bigger than them, something capable of creating them. Something with power that they do not possess. At the very first point in their existence, they were not the most powerful being. They were not omnipotent.

So what’s the solution? How does the narcissist uphold their delusion? How does the narcissist defy reality in order to control it?

By any means possible.
