“Once we understand what characteristics are valued (or disdained) in our commu-nities, we assess whether we individually possess more, or less, of them than do others in our communities. We compare ourselves to others to determine how we measure up, and through this social comparison, we evaluate ourselves. In this way, the groups we compare ourselves to—our reference groups—play an important role in shaping how we view ourselve”

“الغريب الذي لا اسم له فيذكر ، ولا رسم له فيشهر ،ولاطي له فينشر،ولاعذر له فيعذر،ولاذنب له فيغفر،ولاعيب عنده فيستر...وأغرب الغرباء من صار غريبا في وطنه ، وأبعد البعداء من كان بعيدا في محل قربه.”
