I'd say my version does not include comparison to others. I actually wish more people try their best to create great things even if what their creations are much better than mine.

My version would be more like :

"Owning a car is very circumstantial. It means you temporarily have some property right on it. It can break, it can be taken away from you. If you create something it's yours forever. Its existence is not independant of your will.".

At the end of their lives some people will have owned ten cars, others will have written ten books.
