Recently, I was re-reading some parts of the book No Time to Spare by Ursula K. Le Guin, one of my favorite authors. The book is a collection of Ursula's blog articles. While going back and forth between some articles there, one paragraph struck me.
"'Let the best man win' doesn’t mean the good man will win. 'This will be a fair fight, no prejudice, no interference—so the best fighter will win it.' If the treacherous bully fairly defeats the nice guy, the treacherous bully is declared champion."
—Ursula K. Le Guin
I started pondering on this and realized how bad my perception was about real life. Thinking about the societal impact on me was an eye-opening experience. You can read my thoughts here or by using the link below.
