Text Quotes
One of the unseen benefits of having children is that they deliver you from your own selfishness. There’s no going back  (Selfishness Quotes) If faith is lacking, it is because there is too much selfishness, too much concern for personal gain. For faith to be true, it has to be generous and loving. Love and faith go together, they complete each other  (Selfishness Quotes) The rights of the people to the exercise and fruits of their own industry can never be protected against the selfishness of rulers not subject to their control at short periods  (Selfishness Quotes) I will waste not even a precious second today in anger or hate or jealousy or selfishness. I know that the seeds I sow I will harvest, because every action, good or bad, is always followed by an equal reaction. I will plant only good seeds this day  (Selfishness Quotes) Certain beliefs must accompany every action: One should act without selfishness, cultivate compassion for all living things, and develop respect for others  (Selfishness Quotes) It is in fact the height of selfishness to merely consume what others create and to retreat into a shell of limited goals and immediate pleasures  (Selfishness Quotes) One thing is clear to me, that no indulgence of passion destroys the spiritual nature so much as respectable selfishness  (Selfishness Quotes) Our own selfishness makes us the most arrant cowards; our own selfishness is the great cause of fear and cowardice  (Selfishness Quotes) If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you’ve been torturing your soul  (Selfishness Quotes) Go on bravely. Do not expect success in a day or a year. Always hold on to the highest. Be steady. Avoid jealousy and selfishness. Be obedient and eternally faithful to the cause of truth, humanity, and your country, and you will move the world  (Selfishness Quotes) True happiness comes from having a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved by cultivating altruism, love and compassion, and by eliminating anger, selfishness and greed  (Selfishness Quotes) Two conflicting forces cannot exist in one human heart. When doubt reigns, faith cannot abide. Where hatred rules, love is crowded out. Where selfishness rules, there love cannot dwell. When worry is present, trust cannot crowd its way in  (Selfishness Quotes) Selfishness is not living your life as you wish to live it. Selfishness is wanting others to live their lives as you wish them to  (Selfishness Quotes) By obliging men to turn their attention to other affairs than their own, it rubs off that private selfishness which is the rust of society  (Selfishness Quotes) The squirrel hoards nuts and the bee gathers honey, without knowing what they do, and they are thus provided for without selfishness or disgrace  (Selfishness Quotes) Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere  (Selfishness Quotes) As you help those in need, selfishness will fall away. And, without even noticing you will find your own fulfillment  (Selfishness Quotes) Most human beings know only the language of exploitation. Due to their selfishness, they are unable to consider others  (Selfishness Quotes) I’m just the mere shadow of my former selfishness. I crave the silhouette of your kiss  (Selfishness Quotes) The secret of success is to realize that the crisis on our planet is much larger than just deciding what to do with your own life, and if the system under which we live the structure of western civilization begins to collapse because of our selfishness and greed, then it will make no difference whether you have $1 million dollars when the crash comes or just $1.00. The only work that will ultimately bring any good to any of us is the work of contributing to the healing of the world  (Selfishness Quotes) Good character consists of recognizing the selfishness that inheres in each of us and trying to balance it against the altruism to which we should all aspire. It is a difficult balance to strike, but no definition of goodness can be complete without it  (Selfishness Quotes) We have observed that, in society and the world in which we live, selfishness has increased more than love for others, and that men of good will must work, each with his own strengths and expertise, to ensure that love for others increases until it is equal and possibly exceeds love for oneself  (Selfishness Quotes) Many people must be ruled to thrive. In their selfishness and greed, they see free people as their oppressors. They wish to have a leader who will cut the taller plants so the sun will reach them. They think no plant should be allowed to grow taller than the shortest, and in that way give light to all. They would rather be provided a guiding light, regardless of the fuel, than light a candle themselves  (Selfishness Quotes) Although the human heart is selfish and arrogant, so many struggle against their selfishness and learn humility; because of them, as long as there is life, there is hope that beauty lost can be rediscovered, that what has been reviled can be redeemed  (Selfishness Quotes) I will eliminate hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism, by developing love for all humanity, because I know that a negative attitude toward others can never bring me success. I will cause others to believe in me, because I will believe in them, and in myself  (Selfishness Quotes) Compassion has been advocated by all the great faiths because it has been found to be the safest and surest means of attaining enlightenment. It dethrones the ego from the center of our lives and puts others there, breaking down the carapace of the selfishness that holds us back from an experience of the sacred. And it gives us ecstasy, broadening our perspectives and giving us a larger, enhanced vision  (Selfishness Quotes) To consider persons and events and situations only in the light of their effect on me is to live on the doorstep of hell. Selfishness is doomed to frustration centered as it is upon a lie. To live exclusively for myself, I must make all things bend themselves to my will as if I were a God  (Selfishness Quotes) You are my inspiration and my folly. You are my light across the sea, my million nameless joys, and my day’s wage. You are my divinity, my madness, my selfishness, my transfiguration and purification. You are my rapscallionly fellow vagabond, my tempter and star. I want you  (Selfishness Quotes) The dramatic threat of ecological breakdown is teaching us the extent to which greed and selfishness are contrary to the order of creation... A given culture reveals its understanding of life through the choices it makes in production and consumption... a great deal of educational and cultural work is urgently needed, including the education of consumers in the responsible use of their power of choice  (Selfishness Quotes) The mere absorption of facts and truths is so exclusively an individual affair that it tends very naturally to pass into selfishness. There is no obvious social motive for the acquirement of mere learning, there is no clear social gain in success thereat  (Selfishness Quotes)
