Not everyone can handle success. It has to come by merit and not ingratiating entitlement -- or it will destroy them. People of merit have great humility; people of ingratiating entitlement reveal their arrogance, ignorance, insufferable self-righteousness.

Wow. Nicely said. Wise words.

In my life's experience I have had the fortune to work for and with people of merit, and I have had the sorrow in working for people of "entitlement." God in Heaven forgive me for my hatred of the people who were promoted over me because they were "entitled."
