There is never a moment where I find Trump persuasive. When I look at him I see a man without any inner life. I see the most superficial person on Earth. This is a guy who has been totally hollowed out by greed and self regard and delusion. If I caught some sort of brain virus and I started talking about myself the way Trump talks about himself, I would throw myself out a fucking window. That barely overstates it. Do you remember that scene at the end of The Exorcist where the priest is driving out the devil from Linda Blair and the devil comes into him and he just hurls himself out the window to end all the madness? Well, it would be like that. . Sam Harris
About This Quote

While you may not want to compare yourself to the devil, you might be doing the same thing. You need to look at what you are doing and see where it is harming your life. How are you living your life? Are you getting up every day and fighting to get your life on track? Or are you just coasting through your days? Do you do things that harm or even kill yourself? If so, then stop them immediately. We all have demons that we need to exorcise in order to get our lives on track. The devil sold us out by selling us his lies of success and success doesn’t come by selling everyone else out.
