ourselves

If we have no respect for our viewers, then how can we have any respect for ourselves and what we do?

If we're honest with ourselves, most of us know the one thing we lack.

We can't know if we laugh at ourselves for being silly or to forget that we're not and that we are still here only by a sufferance that can be no more predicted than appeased. Like most things, probably a little of both.

Just we know what we want. Just we can discover our anticipation. Just we can understand ourselves. so find yourself. Invest time on finding yourself rather than investing enrgy recklessly on the undesirable people. Consequently disappointment will lessen and happiness will belimp.

Life is a prison in which we find ourselves.

When what we say doesn't match how we act, we are lying to ourselves.

I think the purpose of life is to know who we are to ourselves and others, to know where we are in terms of time and place, and to do what we can to stay alive. what happens thereafter is the purpose of death.

When we run away from something. We're usually running away from ourselves.

Why did I sign up for this?''Because we grow by challenging ourselves.

[T]he unsympathetic assessments we make of others are usually the result of nothing more sinister than our habit of looking at them in the wrong way, through lenses clouded by distraction, exhaustion and fear, which blind us to the fact that they are really, despite a thousand differences, just altered versions of ourselves: fellow fragile, uncertain, flawed beings likewise craving love and in urgent need of forgiveness.

When we aren't honest with ourselves about who we are and what we want, we allow other people and circumstance to determine our life course.

We lie to ourselves about the smallest details, and we lie to ourselves about our largest life choices.

We are all 'right' if we are being truly ourselves.... that is the best we can be in each moment, until we learn more...

The gospel that has been preached in our churches has not been fair to the African continent. It has left us in a beggarly state, waiting on God for things we could produce by and for ourselves

God saved us so that we could become servants of his will and dedicate ourselves to what he wants us to do

To begin to know ourselves we must have sincere conversations with ourselves as if with a good friend. We must answer without reserve, listen without judgement, and accept without condition. That is self-love.

At the most basic level, self-deception is fooling ourselves into believing something that is false -- or -- not believing something that is true.

Other people's heads are too wretched a place for true happiness to have its seat.
