Kindness is the cause of all anxiety.

Guilt is not the best way to remedy your mistakes.

Accept yourself. But realize your behaviors can be bad.

Learn to accept your limits and you'll become a happier person.

David D. Burns Author

Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don’t judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone’s differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn’t handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is refusing to take advantage of another’s weakness and being willing to forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each other

Real love amounts to withholding the truth, even when you're offered the perfect opportunity to hurt someone's feelings.

David Sedaris Humorist

If Ivan the Terrible had been kissed and loved between zero and three, he probably would have become Ivan Not So Terrible. If you're Jewish, you have a small smile on your face. Because you know the rest are wrong and you don't want to hurt their feelings.

Mel Brooks Film Director

Women are the only people I am afraid of who I never thought would hurt me

Abraham Lincoln 16th U.S. President

If I haven't had any long term psychological side effects from all the things I've already done on this show, this isn't gonna hurt much more.

Adam Savage Industrial Designer

Trying to maintain a pleasant state and avoid an unpleasant state is actually the cause of sorrow. When you stop resisting, you see that what seems frightening is actually the absolute beauty of reality. When you see that everything is a momentary display of reality, then you stop resisting it. Resistance hurts, only every single time. Love is the state of nonresistance.
