Wisdom Of Psychopaths

The book “The Wisdom of Psychopaths” is the opposite of a book that I would choose to read for fun. The quote that got my attention the most was: “I think the main thing about psychopaths,” says Rossi, “is the fact that on the one hand they’re so normal, so much like the rest of us-but on the other, so different, Gacy used to dress up as a clown and perform at children’s parties…. That’s the thing about psychopaths. On the outside, they seem so ordinary, yet scratch beneath the surface, peek inside the crawl space, as it were, and you never know what you might find.” Sounds scary, is interesting how we know so many people but not know if they are psychopaths. Is scary to think that a psychopath can be working as a child care provider or a teacher.

But I do believe that we all have some psychopath in ourselves, because most of the time we are willing to do or say anything to get what we want. I was sock that a psychopath was compare to a successful business owner. As a business, major, I was sock that I could myself be a psychopath. No matter what people tell me I can remain calm, but if someone messes with any of my children I turn into a person that I don’t even know. I find this book to be very interesting, the more I read it, the more I understand a psychopath.
