Famous Quotes about self-confidence

Emily Brontë quote #396 from Wuthering Heights

You teach me now how cruel youve been - cruel and false. Why did you despise me Why did you betray your own heart Cathy I have not one word of comfort. You deserve this. You have killed yourself. Yes you may kiss me and cry and wring out my kisses and tears theyll blight you - theyll damn you. You loved me - what right had you to leave me What right - answer me - for the poor fancy you felt for Linton Because misery and degradation and death and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us you of your own will did it. I have no broken your heart - you have broken it and in breaking it you have broken mine. So much the worse for me that I am strong. Do I want to live What kind of living will it be when you - Oh God would you like to lie with your soul in the grave

Robert A. Heinlein quote #162 from Stranger in a Strange Land

Jealousy is a disease love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other or assumes that the greater the love the greater the jealousy - in fact they are almost incompatible one emotion hardly leaves room for the other.

Wm. Paul Young quote #256 from The Shack: Where Tragedy Confronts Eternity

Each relationship between two persons is absolutely unique. That is why you cannot love two people the same. It simply is not possible. You love each person differently because of who they are and the uniqueness that they draw out of you.

Brené Brown quote #473 from The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are

We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust respect kindness and affection.Love is not something we give or get it is something that we nurture and grow a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.Shame blame disrespect betrayal and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged healed and rare.
