Quotes about People

    “Not everyone who is failing is a victim, and not everyone at the bottom wishes to rise, although many do, and many manage it.” ~ Jordan Peterson, via 12 Rules for Life (Page 76)

      “I looked at the people who were making me feel uncomfortable and realized how uncomfortable they were in their own skin.  To make fun of or try to intimidate someone they didn’t even know based on race alone was a clear indication that something was very wrong with them, not me.  But when you have no confidence it becomes easy to value other people’s opinions, and I was valuing everyone’s opinion without considering the minds that generated them.” ~ David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me

        “You can inspire, influence, help, support, advise, and love others.  But you can’t control how any of it is received or understood.  You have no say over what gets internalized, what gets triggered, or how the other person will react.  Your work is to offer your best; their work is to receive it as best they can.” ~ Emily Maroutian
