Nemesis and hubris

Today I passed two 6-year-olds on the street on my way home from the university.

"Did your dad never tell you what nemesis is?"

"Uhm, no..."

"It's like when you think you can do everything and you can't do nothing at all... Like if I said I could beat you up like four times and then started and found out that I couldn't, and then you beat me up like five times first - then I was being nemesis and then, you beating me up was like the punishment, my hubris it's called. When you think you can do everything and you forget that you are just a person. Then you get beat up..."

Priceless...
