Nicolas StenoUnconsciously we all have a standard by which we measure other men, and if we examine closely we find that this standard is a very simple one, and is this: we admire them, we envy them, for great qualities we ourselves lack. Hero worship consists in just that. Our heroes are men who do things which we recognize, with regret, and sometimes with a secret shame, that we cannot do. We find not much in ourselves to admire, we are always privately wanting to be like somebody else. If everybody was satisfied with himself, there would be no heroes.

I was born to be lonely, I am best so!" If I admire my arms, my face, my shoulders, flanks, buttocks against the yellow drawn shades,-- Who shall say I am not the happy genius of my household?
William Carlos WilliamsIf you envy successful people, you create a negative force field of attraction that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful.

And I'm in awe of the young Pakistani student and activist, Malala Yousafzai, for her bravery and resilience in the face of brutal repression.

Dave FrancoI really believe that women have much easier access to their souls than men do. Because as men we're taught to wear masks, to drown out our emotions in competition and making money.

Harrison FordOne of the problems we have is that we cannot just be content to admire and enjoy, we have to possess and feel we own what we see.

Giacomo Leopardi... the friendship of worthless people has a bad effect (because they take part, unstable as they are, in worthless pursuits, and actually become bad through each other's influence).

They seem even to become better men by exercising their friendship and improving each other; for the traits that they admire in each other get transferred to themselves.
Aristotle
