Text Quotes
To understand oneself requires patience, tolerant awareness; the self is a book of many volumes which you cannot read in a day, but when once you begin to read, you must read every word, every sentence, every paragraph for in them are the intimations of the whole. The beginning of it is the ending of it. If you know how to read, supreme wisdom is to be found  (Oneself Quotes) I have nothing but myself to write about, no facts, no theories, no opinions, no adventures, no sentiments, nothing but my own poor barren individualism, of considerable interest to me, but I do not know why I should presume it will be so to you. Egotism is not tiresome, or it ought not to be, if one is sincere about oneself; but it is so hard to be sincere. Well, never mind, I mean to be, and you know me well enough to see through me when I am humbugging  (Oneself Quotes) A garden that one makes oneself becomes associated with one’s personal history and that of one’s friends, interwoven with one’s tastes, preferences and character and constitutes a sort of unwritten autobiography  (Oneself Quotes) In the concert of nature it is hard to keep in tune with oneself if one is out of tune with everything else  (Oneself Quotes) I think through living one’s life, one both changes and remains the same. One can see it either way, one can see oneself as being now what one was and one can see oneself as being absolutely different from what one was. It’s a trick of thought  (Oneself Quotes) The ancients, even though they believed in destiny, believed primarily in nature, in which they participated wholeheartedly. To rebel against nature amounted to rebelling against oneself. It was butting one’s head against a wall  (Oneself Quotes) The most demanding part of living a lifetime as an artist is the strict discipline of forcing oneself to work steadfastly along the nerve of one’s own intimate sensitivity  (Oneself Quotes) The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation... it is common to wish well to oneself, but in our technically unified world, wishing well to oneself is sure to be futile unless it is combined with wishing well to others  (Oneself Quotes) Yes! live life with every fibre of one’s being, surrender oneself to it, with no thoughts of rebellion, without deluding oneself that one can improve it and render it painless  (Oneself Quotes) It is not necessary that one should humble oneself to deserve assistance, it is sufficient that one should suffer  (Oneself Quotes) After a person dies, there is always something like a feeling of stupefaction, so difficult is it to comprehend this unexpected advent of nothingness and to resign oneself to believing it  (Oneself Quotes) With every adversity comes a blessing because a shock acts as a reminder to oneself that we must not get stale in routine  (Oneself Quotes) One is seldom unchanged by the death of those one loves. It gives me a deeper knowledge of them, and so of oneself in regard to them  (Oneself Quotes) Me personally, I’m a guy who it took a long time to figure out what I’m supposed to be doing. I relate to a lot of that finding oneself a little later in the game, or being thrown a curve later in the game  (Oneself Quotes) Hell is the incapacity to be other than the creature one finds oneself ordinarily behaving as  (Oneself Quotes) There seems to be no agent more effective than another person in bringing a world for oneself alive, or, by a glance, a gesture, or a remark, shriveling up the reality in which one is lodged  (Oneself Quotes) If there is one thing more difficult than submitting oneself to a regime it is refraining from imposing it on other people  (Oneself Quotes) I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it. I was intrigued by how one moved one’s body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match  (Oneself Quotes) To link oneself with the masses, one must act in accordance with the needs and wishes of the masses  (Oneself Quotes) It is not enough... simply to surrender oneself brainlessly to love, when it knocks at the door, one must also calculate because of later life, which does sometimes follow  (Oneself Quotes) I believe in just doing it and not looking for excuses because who really cares in the end? No one but oneself  (Oneself Quotes) There must be something in oneself which is essential. Therefore I refrain from referring to a landscape or certain objects when speaking of a picture. The hand is cleverer than the mind  (Oneself Quotes) I paint with a language I can call my own... it takes a ruthless honesty with oneself. If one admires or is influenced by anyone else, one is not being true to oneself  (Oneself Quotes) It is easy to crush an enemy outside oneself but impossible to defeat an enemy within  (Oneself Quotes) Boxing was on the one hand barbaric, unconscionable, out of place in modern society. But then, so are war, racism, poverty, and pro football. Men died boxing, yet there was nobility in defending oneself  (Oneself Quotes) Compassion and empathy are not the same as feeling sorry for oneself. They are emotions that extend our perceptual ranges  (Oneself Quotes) To give oneself ernestly to securing righteousness and justice among the people, and while respecting the gods and demons, to keep aloof from them, that may be called wisdom  (Oneself Quotes) A man who denies his past is a man who truly denies himself a future, for he refuses to know himself, and to deny knowledge of oneself is to stumble through life as handicapped as the blind mute  (Oneself Quotes) Better be secure under one king, than exposed to violence from twenty millions of monarchs, though oneself be one of them  (Oneself Quotes) Death is dreadfully personal, terribly important to oneself, and so unimportant to the rest of the world  (Oneself Quotes)
