No one is coming to save you.

The reputation you have with yourself - your self-esteem - is the single most important factor for a fulfilling life.

What is guilt? It is moral self-reproach-I did wrong when it was possible to have done otherwise.

Fear and pain should be treated as signals not to close our eyes but to open them wider.

As you grow in self-esteem, your face, manner, way of talking and moving will tend naturally to project the pleasure you take in being alive.

A bully hides his fears with fake bravado. That is the opposite of self-assertiveness.

Anyone who really loves you wants you to be authentic. And anyone who doesn't want you to be authentic doesn't really love you.
