I hate mankind, for I think myself one of the best of them, and I know how bad I am. —Joseph Baretti More about this quote Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
What mattered was not what happens to you, but how you handle it. Self-command is required to overcome the dangerous misinformation of our emotions, and because for the most part the self is the only thing that we can command. We have no control, ultimately, over what people do or think. What we can influence is our understanding of these circumstances and how we respond to them. —Joseph Baretti More about this quote Tags: mankind Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
