Becoming generous, carrying someone else for a while, does amazing things for your self-esteem. Selfishness--even in the name of an injustice--lowers your self-respect and creates shame. |

| Quote: |
To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one's self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--that is to have succeeded. |

Every industrious man, in every lawful calling, is a useful man. And one principal reason why men are so often useless is that they neglect their own profession or calling, and divide and shift their attention among a multiplicity of objects and pursuits. |

Alienation without must be accompanied by alienation
within; that is the law for every social level, even
individuals. To harm one's fellows, even one's enemies,
harms you, takes away some essential element from your
self-respect and self-image. |

We see that when the activities of life are infused with reverence, they come alive with meaning and purpose. We see that when reverence is lacking from life's activities, the result is cruelty, violence and loneliness. |

| Quote: |
When people express themselves verbally, they want feedback that
they've been heard, and they also want to be understood. This is true even when they don't understand themselves, as is the case when an upset person tries to describe their feelings and thoughts. But when two or more people want to be heard and understood at the same time, and no one is willing to listen and understand, an argument or exit is almost inevitable. For this reason, a masterful communicator makes it his or her goal to listen and understand first, before attempting to be heard or understood. |

| Quote: |
Healthy fear evokes fully awakened attention and calm point in the presence
of realities we cannot control. It cautions us before we dive into ocean
breakers, safeguards us on narrow mountain paths with spectacular views, and makes us respectful when approaching the sacred mystery of any person. In healthy fear, what little power we may have is wonderfully concentrated. It is the mother of wisdom and the companion of courage. |

| Quote: |
...having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise. It is therefore that the older I grow, the more apt I am to doubt my own judgement, and to pay more respect to the judgement of others. |
