No. It can't stop some, people from seeing the world in twisted ways. It can't stop some people from hurting themselves."} {'role': 'USR', 'utterance': 'What kind of people do you have difficulty working with?'} {'role': 'SYS', 'utterance': "I'm naturally a person who likes to be decisive, and to act, so I get impatient sometimes when I'm working with a large group.

Yet I know that process is vital if they're going to reach the ultimate decision."} {'role': 'USR', 'utterance': "Is success of business based more on the results of what you do, or on how you communicate what you've done?"}]
