Quote Author

Confucius
Chinese - Philosopher
551 BC - 479 BC

Loosen the bonds of discursive thought. Extend the circle of caring. Cease armoring against suffering. Wish for others the same happiness you wish for yourself. Be a tender-minded steward of creation.

Marc Ian Barasch

If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart.

Friedrich Schiller

If you shift your focus from yourself to others, extend your concern to others, and cultivate the thought of caring for the well being of others, then this will have the immediate effect of opening up your life and helping you to reach out.

Dalai Lama

Love others as you would love yourself, judge others as you would judge yourself, cherish others as you would cherish yourself. When you wish for others as you wish for yourself and when you protect others as you would protect yourself, that's when you can say it's true love.

Confucius

Every family should have the right to spend their money, after tax, as they wish, and not as the government dictates. Let us extend choice, extend the will to choose and the chance to choose.

Margaret Thatcher

The more you extend kindness to yourself, the more it will become your automatic response to others.

Wayne Dyer

Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding. The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

Do yourself what you wish others to do.

Ramakrishna

That which you do not wish for yourself, do not impose on others.

Umar

If you wish to be happy yourself, you must resign yourself to seeing others also happy.

Bertrand Russell

If you have no wish to bring others to heaven, you are not going there yourself.

Charles Spurgeon

The best way to sell yourself to others is first to sell the others to yourself. Check yourself against this list of obstacles to a pleasing personality: interrupting others; sarcasm; vanity; being a poor listener; insincere flattery; finding fault; challenging others without good cause; giving unsolicited advice; complaining; attitude of superiority; envy of others' success; poor posture and dress.

Harold Geneen

Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.

Thomas a Kempis

If you could see yourself the way that others do, you'd wish you were as beautiful as you.

Jon Bon Jovi

It seems that for some people the idea of compassion entails a complete disregard for or even a sacrifice of their own interests. This is not the case. In fact, you first of all have to have a wish to be happy yourself - if you don't love yourself like that, how can you love others?

Dalai Lama

If you wish to succeed in managing and controlling others - learn to manage and control yourself.
