“It never ceases to amaze me: we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own.” 

- Marcus Aurelius

We give and take opinions. We value providing our opinions, mostly for free and when unasked for. And we value what others opinionate about us. We are dying to know what others think of us. To the “n” -th degree.

Seems like we are more opinion-centric than egocentric. That our ego will run a close second. If that is so, then we humans are certainly opinion-powered. That’s the energy that drives us and makes our world go around.
