Until about the age of nine, boys believe that the world is theirs for the taking. After that they go through a prepubescent crisis during which they learn that other men, including their own brothers, are out to compete with them and even kill them in order to win. Some of these boys subconsciously submit to the domination of those other men and end up as weaklings who no longer value leadership and heroism.

Sometimes I feel that the only solution is for them never to trust their fellow men.
