501 FOR TEACHING

 

501 FOR TEACHING



Be who you are and say what you want/feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind 

Everyone makes their own comments. That's how rumors get started.

For there to be betrayal, there would have to have been trust first.

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

I think, therefore I am/exist.

If there is such a thing as a good marriage, it is because it resembles friendship  rather than love.

If we were not all so interested in ourselves, life would be so uninteresting that none of us would be able to endure it. 

In order for a man to feel whole, he needs someone to look up to and someone to look up to him. Pamela Anderson

In order for answers to become clear, the questions have to be clear. Abdolkarim Sorush

It's understandable and almost touching that we should expect our partners to understand us without us having explained / having to explain what's up / going on.

It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. Epictetus

Just Because nobody complains doesn't mean all parachutes are perfect.

Just because you're are paranoid does not mean they are not out to get you. 

Look, you have to make mistakes. That's how you learn and that's how the world works.

Maybe it's not about the happy ending. Maybe it's about the story.


The aim of the wise is not to secure pleasure, but to avoid pain. Aristotle  

The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth / provoke your best. Epictetus

(Perhaps) that's how you learn, by answering questions / by asking.

Remaind yourself that it's OK not to be perfect.

Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.

The key is (for you) to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best. Epictetus

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.

The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by (the word) 'sadness'.

Trust is like an eraser. It gets smaller and smaller after every mistake.
 
Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.


We love live, not because we're used to living but because we're used to loving.

What doesn't kill you (only / just) makes you stronger. I really believe that.

When I'm sad, I stop being sad and I be awesome instead.

When you reach the top, that's when the climb begins.

Your beliefs don't make you a better person. Your behaviour does.

A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love * Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter * Almost all of our sorrows spring out of our relations with other people * Behind all their personal vanity, women themselves always have an impersonal contempt for woman (lacking human emotion, cold) * Erasmus reminds us that we have no freakin' idea why we are here and who we are, so we better be humble and respect each other * He who humbles himself will be exalted vs He who humbles himself wants to be exalted * Know yourself. (Get to know yourself, (how) to know yourself is your first priority! (1.Be aware of your strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes, 2. Observe and be aware of your moods, reactions and responses to what is happening around you, 3. Become aware of how these moods and emotions affect your state of mind, 4. Examine how you interact with others, 5. Observe how your environment affects you, 6. Knowing and understanding yourself better, in turn, leads to better decision making, setting and reaching appropriate goals and ultimately living a more productive life * Erasmus reminds us that everyone, however important and learned they might be, is a fool (In Praise of Folly): his judgement is faulty, his passions get the better of him, he is prey to superstition and irrational fear, he is shy whenever he has to meet new people, he drops things at elegant dinners ... This is deeply cheering, for it means that our own repeated idiocies don't have to exclude us from the best company. Looking like a prick, making blunders and doing bizarre things in the night doesn’t render us unfit for society, it just makes us a bit more like the greatest scholar of the northern European Renaissance * If it gets complex (then) you don’t understand yourself well enough * Study has always been for me the sovereign remedy against life's unpleasantness, since I have never known / experienced any trouble / sorrow / distress that an hour's reading did not relieve / eliminate  * The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently * There are some defeats more triumphant than victories * There are no factsonly interpretations  When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too * Great minds think alike *
