Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By William Hazlitt

Humour is the describing the ludicrous as it is in itself; wit is the exposing it, by comparing or contrasting it with something else. Humour is, as it were, the growth of nature and accident; wit is the product of art and fancy. — William Hazlitt

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Hugh Laurie

So unless we're going to get down on our knees and give thanks every time disaster misses, it makes no sense to moan when it strikes. Us, or anyone else. Because we're not comparing it with anything.
And anyway, we're all dead, or never born, and the whole thing really is a dream.
There, you see. That's a funny side. — Hugh Laurie

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Blaise Pascal

Once that is clearly understood, I think that each of us can stay quietly in the state in which nature has placed him. since the middle station allotted to us is always far from the extremes, what does it matter if someone else has a slightly better understanding of things? If he has, and if he takes them a little further, is he not still infinitely remote from the goal? Is not our span of life equally infinitesimal in eternity, even if it is extended by ten years?
In the perspective of all these infinites, all finites are equal and I see no reason to settle our imagination on one rather than another. Merely comparing ourselves with the finite is painful. — Blaise Pascal

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Jiddu Krishnamurti

It is only when I look at you without comparative judgment that I can understand you. But when I compare you with somebody else, then I judge you and I say, 'Oh, he is a very stupid man'. So stupidity arises when there is comparison. I compare you with somebody else, and that very comparison brings about a lack of human dignity. When I look at you without comparing, I am only concerned with you, not with someone else. The very concern about you, not comparatively, brings about human dignity. — Jiddu Krishnamurti

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Maria Shriver

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Dan Schilling

We need to stop comparing ourselves to others, and stop patting ourselves on the back for attaining artificial measurements of spirituality. We need to take care that we do not think we are something we are not, or else we may deceive ourselves, setting ourselves up for rebuke in the future when we see Christ face to face — Dan Schilling

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Stephen Richards

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Marlo Thomas

I raised you to be a thoroughbred. When thoroughbreds run, they wear blinders to keep their eyes focused straight ahead with no distractions, no other horses.

You just run your own race. — Marlo Thomas

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Hailey Burke

One of the rules on that list I'm not making is DON'T COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS. What you, as a human being, need to realize is you're you. There is nobody else that will be a better you. Comparing yourself to others is what ends up ruining your self esteem. Everything about you is absolutely amazing. You're another wonderful work of art created by the universe. You're EXACTLY what you need to be. A beautiful, working, thinking, breathing, moving, feeling, living work of art. Nothing could possibly be more fantastic than your existence. — Hailey Burke

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Iain McGilchrist

To understand something, whether we are aware of it or not, depends on choosing a model.

But what we compare it with turns out to have a huge influence on the outcome. — Iain McGilchrist

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Jamie Lee Curtis

I tried to find a rhythm, and I stopped comparing myself to anybody else. One of the great phrases for me is "Compare and despair." If I compare myself to Kate Middleton or Dame Judi Dench, I'm going to come out at the bottom and be sad. — Jamie Lee Curtis

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Greg Behrendt

Being a winner in life means finding a way to keep yourself in the personal space where you're being the best and most vibrant you instead of the smallest you. That is the secret to success in anything you want to do in life. That means not comparing yourself to anyone else and concentrating on you. Because when your self-esteem is in the shitter and you don't feel worthy, you look to others for validation, you settle for crappy things and all you get is crappy things and who wants that? — Greg Behrendt

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Mary Harron

I think morale is the hardest part, not comparing yourself to someone else. I think everyone compares themselves to someone more successful than they are. Everyone does it. You have to embrace your own rocky path. — Mary Harron

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Brene Brown

What makes this constant assessing and comparing so self-defeating is that we are often comparing our lives, our marriages, our families, and our communities to unattainable, media-driven visions of perfection, or we're holding up our reality against our own fictional account of how great someone else has it. Nostalgia is also a dangerous form of comparison. — Brene Brown

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Hideki Yukawa

Suppose there is something which a person cannot understand. He happens to notice the similarity of this something to some other thing which he understands quite well. By comparing them he may come to understand the thing which he could not understand up to that moment. If his understanding turns out to be appropriate and nobody else has ever come to such an understanding, he can claim that his thinking was really creative. — Hideki Yukawa

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Anthony Robbins

When you seek Significance, you're always comparing yourself with someone else. And there's always someone bigger, taller, stronger, faster, richer, funnier, younger, more handsome, more beautiful, with a bigger yacht, a nicer car, a nicer home. — Anthony Robbins

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Ellen Emerson White

You have intellect, and courage, and command. Play your own game, and don't worry about what anyone else is doing. That is what's going to give you a shot at making it. Comparing yourself to anyone else will just drive you crazy. — Ellen Emerson White

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Hugh Laurie

Because, what does it mean, to say that things aren't going well? Compared to what? You can say: compared to how things were going a couple of hours ago, or a couple of years ago. But that's not the point. If two cars are speeding towards a brick wall with no brakes, and one car hits the wall moments before the other, you can't spend those moments saying that the second car is much better off than the first.
Death and disaster are at our shoulders every second of our lives, trying to get at us. Missing, a lot of the time. A lot of miles on the motorway without a front wheel blow-out. A lot of viruses that slither through our bodies without snagging. A lot of pianos that fall a minute after we've passed. Or a month, it makes no difference.
So unless we're going to get down on our knees and give thanks every time disaster misses, it makes no sense to moan when it strikes. Us, or anyone else. Because we're not comparing it with anything. — Hugh Laurie

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Bo Sanchez

For crying out loud, stop comparing and start living! And you'll be happier with your life, I guarantee. This is crucial: the most difficult thing in the world is to be who you are not. Pretending and trying to be someone else is the official pastime of the human race. And the easiest thing in the world is to be yourself. Be happy. Live! There must be a reason why God made you tall or short or fat or thin or bumpy all over. Love who you are! — Bo Sanchez

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Johnny Marr

Now, I'm a dad, I'm an adult. I've been solo for 25 years; I've been in other people's groups but I'm solo [in a broader sense]. I stopped comparing myself to other people's maps when I was maybe 24, really. The trajectory that I've gone on is not one that I can compare with anybody else. — Johnny Marr

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Suzan Tisdale

What was your first kiss like?"he had asked.
She answered, "I do not know as I have yet to experience such. Mayhap I should find a willing young man to help teach me how to kiss before I marry. With you being such a worldly and experienced man, mayhap you would want a wife who is just as experienced and worldly?"
His response left her laughing almost uncontrollably.
"It would bring me much relief to know you have not one grain of experience with kissing. I would hate to think you were comparing my kisses with anyone else's. Equally important is the fact that I might be drawn and quartered before our wedding day, for gutting any man who dare even think about kissing you. You would, in truth, be saving countless lives by remaining ignorant on the matter. — Suzan Tisdale

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Dan Harris

The ego is constantly comparing itself to others. It has us measuring our self-worth against the looks, wealth, and social status of everyone else. Did this not explain some of my worrying at work? — Dan Harris

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Brittany Snow

With Instagram and Twitter, you're constantly looking at other people and comparing yourself to them, and it's just not beneficial.

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Wentworth Miller

I'm a very competitive person, but competitive with myself. I want to be the best that I can be, and if that means that I'm eventually better than everyone else, then so be it. But I don't go around comparing and contrasting myself with other actors if I can help it. It's also, I think, the key to my success. — Wentworth Miller

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Jiddu Krishnamurti

When you are comparing, you are really not looking at the sunset which is there, but you are looking at it in order to compare it with something else. So comparison prevents you from looking fully. — Jiddu Krishnamurti

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Willow Smith

Comparing yourself to somebody else is like comparing yourself to a bird. — Willow Smith

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Anna Camp

You always envy someone else's life and, as a woman, you're always comparing your life to someone else's life. — Anna Camp

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Billie Jean King

I've never cared that much for cementing my place in history. Sports is so transitory, so ephemeral. It just seems like so much nonsense comparing me to Helen Wills Moody or Suzanne Lenglen or anybody else from some other time. One lesson you learn from sports is that life goes on without you. — Billie Jean King

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Courtney Joseph

One reason we struggle with insecurity: we're comparing our behind-the-scenes to everyone else's highlight reel. - STEVEN FURTICK — Courtney Joseph

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By George Leonard

Even without comparing ourselves to the world's greatest, we set such high standards for ourselves that neither we nor anyone else could ever meet them-and nothing is more destructive to creativity than this. We fail to realize that mastery is not about perfection. It's about a process, a journey. The master is the one who stays on the path day after day, year after year. The master is the one who is willing to try, and fail, and try again, for as long as he or she lives. — George Leonard

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Cindy Crawford

I'm actually happier with my body now ... because the body I have now is the body I've worked for. I have a better relationship with it. From a purely aesthetic point of view, my body was better when I was 22, 23. But I didn't enjoy it. I was too busy comparing it to everyone else's. — Cindy Crawford

Comparing Yourself To Someone Else Quotes By Bible. New International Version

Galatians 6:2-6 Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load. Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor. — Bible. New International Version
