    Beyond a certain point, they would have no trouble eating. It’s more like, once the machine of expansion really gets going, and you’ve poured your life into it, stopping would be hard. You like expanding your business. You’re good at it. You’re not an idle rich loser like all those other dilettantes at the club!

    Elon’s most obvious trait is the gaping void of insecurity that can never be filled. If he isn’t the genius who will one day prove everyone wrong, who the fuck is he? He is constantly grasping for that warm feeling of having made it, and he is incapable of it. He is a machine built of suffering, his own and many, many others.
