Captivating Lines from Here and There- 33



  • There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow men. True nobility  is being superior to your former self- Ernest Hemingway, Writer  
  • There is only one possible motive behind someone's behaviour: The desire to feel safe or happy. In other words they are scared- Mingyur  Rinpoche , Tibetan Lama
  • Everyone can give something. You can give a loving thought, a sweet word, a radiant smile, a moving song, a helping hand and bring comfort to a broken heart - From "101 stories for you and me" by J.P.Vaswani 
  • CEOs need to be much more congruent and consistent; far more attention is needed to clarify roles, define what people are responsible for and can expect to be accountable for- Nathaniel Branden, Psychotherapist 
  • One of the greatest tragedies of our modern society is the average man's fear of making a mistake. If we outlaw human error, we must also reject progress- Paul.J. Meyer, Founder, Self improvement industry 
  • The "Feeling of fear" seems complicated until you take it apart. As for example, Are you afraid of flying or are you afraid of crashing?  
  • You cannot write well or much unless you form a habit. So write, write,write.In course of time inspiration, or something very much like that will descend upon you- Somerset Maugham, Writer
  • Success almost never hangs on technical ability alone- It hangs far  more on emotional intelligence, interpersonal competence and self esteem. In the information age economy; integrity and character have real economic significance-  Nathaniel Branden, Psychotherapist 
  • Love is when you choose to be your best when the other person is not in his/her best. Love is when what you want is never important. 
  • Let God run the world while you are in it. Avoid anxiety and worry- From "101 stories for you and me" by J.P.Vaswani
