A Quote by Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Esteem never makes ingrates. — © Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Esteem never makes ingrates.
I'm not looking for 'outer esteem' anymore, what they call 'other esteem.' I'm looking for self-esteem. And people think that self-esteem is built with accomplishments. And, 'Hey, look what I did in my life.'
Esteem has more engaging charms than friendship, or even love. It captivates hearts better, and never makes ings.
Esteem must be founded on preference: to hold everyone in high esteem is to esteem nothing.
Self esteem is not the same as being self centered, self absorbed or selfish. Self esteem is also not complacency or overconfidence, both of which and set us up for failure. Self esteem is a strong motivator to work hard. Self esteem is related to mental health and happiness.
Whatever misanthropists may say, ingrates and the perverse are exceptions in the human species.
Satanism represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
Why building self esteem?. The benefits of having self esteem are numerous. Self esteem is strongly associated with happiness, psychological resilience, and a motivating to live a productive and healthy life.
I never had a low self-esteem that would make me gay. At one point, though, the reverse happened. Being homosexual led me to have a loss of self-esteem when I first became aware of society's attitudes about homosexuality.
I like to work. The self-esteem and satisfaction that I get from working makes me a better person, which makes me a better mom.
Self-esteem is the basis for feminism because self-esteem is based on defining yourself and believing in that definition. Self-esteem is regarding yourself as a grown-up.
It's all about self-esteem now. Build the kids' self-esteem, make them feel good about themselves. If everybody grows up with high self-esteem, who's gonna dance in our strip-clubs?
Self-esteem makes me super, superb and supreme
The best way to achieve self-esteem is to do something worthy of esteem.
I like to work. The self-esteem and satisfaction that I get from working makes me a better person, which makes me a better mom. I feel lucky because I have the luxury of working only one or two days a week.
Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all.
It is a mistake to look at someone who is self assertive and say, "It's easy for her, she has good self-esteem." One of the ways you build self-esteem is by being self-assertive when it is not easy to do so. There are always times when self-assertiven ess requires courage, no matter how high your self-esteem.
