Strong people discipline their desires, restrain their reactions, and keep their commitments  (Self Indulgence Quotes) While overeating would be seen by some as an indulgence of self, it is in fact a profound rejection of self.

Neither can sustain a free society  (Self Indulgence Quotes) Artistic self-indulgence is the mark of an amateur.
