those who thirst for superiority and desire domination are very difficult to influence.

 “We limit ourselves to normal cases of mutual influence, we find that those people are most capable of being influenced who are most amenable to reason and logic, those whose social feeling has been least distorted. On the contrary, those who thirst for superiority and desire domination are very difficult to influence. Observation teaches us this fact every day.”
― Alfred Adler, Understanding Human Nature
