Modern man is battered by the fundamental forces of his own psyche.

I know that in many things I am not like others, but I do not know what I really am like. Man cannot compare himself with any other creature; he is not a monkey, not a cow, not a tree. I am a man.

Only a mythical being has a range greater than man's. How then can man form any definite opinions about himself?.
