We're all a bunch of nothings.

If you think about it, we think ourselves too important. We put too much pride in our words, we imbue our actions with significance, and we think we think the best. How significant are our words when 6 billion other people say them? How important are our actions when other people have already done them, maybe even better than we have? How great are our thoughts when right now, several other people are thinking them?

How small and insignificant are we, really? How little is our role in the world? Minuscule, I think. We're nothing. We're all a bunch of nothings.
