		<description><![CDATA[When the disturbed character wants something, he doesn’t necessarily think about whether it’s right, good, or legal — or whether his pursuit of it might adversely affect anyone. He only cares that he wants it. His incessant concern for himself and the things that he desires creates a pattern of thinking which embodies an attitude of indifference to the rights, needs, wants, and expectations of others.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Persons with disturbed characters don’t act the way most of us do largely because they don’t think the way we do.
