About This Quote

People who insist on dividing the world into 'Us' and 'Them' never contemplate that they may be someone else's 'Them'. This saying captures the idea of the annoying people who feel the need to talk about other people as though they are not part of their own lives. They act as though everyone is beneath them, that everyone is an outsider. If they are not talking about you then you must be someone else to them. They expect the best things to happen only for other people, not for themselves.
