“Selfishness is a mother of all social evils.”
Anuj Somany
“Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.”
Oscar Wilde
“There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.”
“One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.”
Mother Teresa
“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”
C.S. Lewis
“Manifest plainness, Embrace simplicity, Reduce selfishness, Have few desires”
Lao Tzu
“The selfishness must be discovered and understood before it can be removed. It is powerless to remove itself, neither will it pass away of itself. Darkness ceases only when light is introduced; so ignorance can only be dispersed by Knowledge; selfishness by Love.”
James Allen
