Abstract
Albert Einstein wrote in Betrachtungen der Persönlichkeit (Considerations of Personality): “If we think about our life and our ambitions, then we notice that practically all of our actions and wishes are linked to the existence of other people. We notice that according to our species, we are very similar to other sociable animals […] Only each individual person is able to think and in this way create new values for society, and indeed even set up new moral standards, according to which the life of the community is enacted.
