As soon as you trust yourself,
you will know how to live.
Goethe
It doesn’t matter what we do
until we accept ourselves.
Once we accept ourselves,
it doesn’t matter what we do.
Charly Heavenrich
What we achieve inwardly,
will change outer reality.
Otto Rank
Anxiety is the mark of spiritual insecurity.
Thomas Merton
Some people say they haven’t yet found themselves.
But the self is not something one finds;
it is something one creates.
Thomas Szasz
I will not permit any man to narrow
and degrade my soul by making me hate him.
Booker T. Washington
Forget conventionalism;
forget what the world thinks of your stepping out of your place;
think your best thoughts,
speak your best words,
work your best works,
looking to your own conscience for approval.
Susan B. Anthony
