The equivalent of “There is no Mr. Company.” was written by Dazai Osamu in [Human Disqualification https://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/太宰メソッド

But, your womanizing ways have come to an end. The world will not tolerate any more of your womanizing. What exactly is the world? Is it the plurality of human beings? Where is the substance of the world? I have always thought of the world as a strong, harsh, and scary thing, but when Horiki said that to me, it occurred to me, 「 The world is you, isn’t it? 」 the word was on the tip of my tongue, and not wanting to offend Horiki, I retracted it. (The world will not tolerate that.) (Not the world. You won’t let it go, will you?) (If you do that, you’ll be treated badly by the world.) (Not the world. It’s you, isn’t it?) (He will be buried from the public now.) (It’s not the world. You’re the one who’s going to bury him, aren’t you?) Know thyself, thou personal horror, monstrousness, viciousness, old wickedness, and yokuban nature! and many other words came to my mind, but I just wiped the sweat from my face with a handkerchief, “Cold Sweat, Cold Sweat” and just laughed. But since that time, I have come to have an ideology that the world is an individual. - Dazai OsamuHuman Disqualification
