"Treat yourself like you would someone you're responsible for helping."

-Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

"Beauty shames the ugly. Strength shames the weak. Death shames the living - and the Ideal shames us all."

"So, listen, to yourself and to those with whom you are speaking. Your wisdom then consists not of the knowledge you already have, but the continual search for knowledge, which is the highest form of wisdom."

-Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

"Sometimes, when people have a low opinion of their own worth—or, perhaps, when they refuse responsibility for their lives—they choose a new acquaintance, of precisely the type who proved troublesome in the past. Such people don’t believe that they deserve any better—so they don’t go looking for it. Or, perhaps, they don’t want the trouble of better. Freud called this a “repetition compulsion."
