Mark Zuckerberg

Facebook is about to be mythologized in a big way. Mark Zuckerberg is being groomed as a generational hero. We are entering the age of megalomania, which is better than an age of narcissism. But narcissism often follows in the footsteps of megalomania, destroying in time all we have built. Praise leads to narcissism, the most pernicious of all destroyers of talent. Megalomaniacs ought to cultivate, from an early age, a distaste for praise.
