To what did she mean: well, I am an idealist. Always wanting the world to be a better place and contributing to it.

Typical for an INTJ.1over137 wrote:well, I am an idealist. Always wanting the world to be a better place and contributing to it.
INTJs make up only about 1,5% of the population, yet there are so many of them (us
) who have left a trace in this world. Check this list:http://www.celebritytypes.com/intj.php
An INTJ is a true free thinker. You can notice that the people in the list I linked belong to different political and religious views.

Re: One person will not change the world
I've asked myself the same thing. And I couldn't manage to find out. There are very few female INTJs. The site I linked says about 0,5%.1over137 wrote:Cool, Reactionary. And what was Marie Curie?

Re: One person will not change the world
Well, we have the case of Jesus Christ, the case of Martin Luther King, the case of Ghandi, the case of Newton, heck even the on the "darker side" the cases of the likes of Hitler, Stalin, Mao, etc...
History is full of "one person" that has changes the world.

Re: One person will not change the world
From wikipedia:
"Maria's father was an atheist; her mother—a devout Catholic. Two years earlier Maria's oldest sibling, Zofia, had died of typhus. The deaths of her mother and sister, according to Robert William Reid, caused Maria to give up Catholicism and become agnostic."
I hope she is not in hell

Pain causes us to do many horrific things.

Well, the Serbian terrorist who assassinated Archduke Ferdinand certainly changed the world.
