“The tallest oak in the forest is the tallest not just because it grew from the hardiest acorn; it is the tallest also because no other trees blocked its sunlight, the soil around was deep and rich, no rabbit chewes through its bark as a sapling, and no lumberjack cut it down before it matured”. Malcom Gladwell, Outliers
