The person we believe ourselves to be will always act in a manner consistent with our self-image.
Brian Tracy
In order to know virtue, we must first acquaint ourselves with vice.
Marquis de Sade

Marquis de Sade
To enjoy freedom we have to control ourselves.
Virginia Woolf
Let us dedicate ourselves to what the Greeks wrote so many years ago: to tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world.

Marcel Proust
It is in moments of illness that we are compelled to recognize that we live not alone but chained to a creature of a different kingdom, whole worlds apart, who has no knowledge of us and by whom it is impossible to make ourselves understood: our body.
Marcel Proust
A change in the weather is sufficient to recreate the world and ourselves.
Marcel Proust

William Butler Yeats
We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The ultimate lesson all of us have to learn is unconditional love, which includes not only others but ourselves as well.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
How seldom we weigh our neighbor in the same balance with ourselves.
Thomas Kempis
We can't have full knowledge all at once. We must start by believing; then afterwards we may be led on to master the evidence for ourselves.
Thomas Aquinas
Faith in a holy cause is to a considerable extent a substitute for lost faith in ourselves.
