Additional quotes by Jordan Peterson

When someone claims to be acting from the highest principles, for the good of others, there is no reason to assume that the person’s motives are genuine. People motivated to make things better usually aren’t concerned with changing other people — or, if they are, they take responsibility for making the same changes to themselves (and first).
