Elements within us all....

Side note, this view of man is why the Founders "constituted" the American government as they did. It's a long way from the progressive view of ponies pooping rainbows of tolerance and looove for all. But it's based on reality in general, especially in big corrupt cities based on illusions of value and paper ponzi. (Which is at least part of the reason why the Founders balanced the cities with the countryside in the electoral college, etc.  Not that even that will work as American civilization declines, something which many Founders also expected.)

Interesting metaphor (I always like dogs as metaphors.):
 I like to call them sheepdogs. You have sheep %90, you have psychopaths %5, then there are sheepdogs %5. The sheepdog is related to the wolf and has many of the canine characteristics, but does not prey on the sheep and is used to scare away the wolves. --Stefan Verstappen
