    Randy Pausch
    “If you took one-tenth the energy you put into complaining and applied it to solving the problem, you'd be surprised by how well things can work out... Complaining does not work as a strategy.

    Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

    Maya Angelou
    “Sister, there are people who went to sleep all over the world last night, poor and rich and white and black, but they will never wake again. Sister, those who expected to rise did not, their beds became their cooling boards, and their blankets became their winding sheets. And those dead folks would give anything, anything at all for just five minutes of this weather or ten minutes of that plowing that person was grumbling about. So you watch yourself about complaining, Sister. What you're supposed to do when you don't like a thing is change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it. Don't complain.”
    Maya Angelou, Wouldn't Take Nothing for My Journey Now

  • #26
    Steve Goodier
    “The world can use more light and less noise. More solvers and fewer blamers. More folks showing a better way and fewer folks complaining about how much better things used to be. More folks offering help and fewer folks wringing their hands about the problems. More hope bringers and fewer hope killers.”
    Steve Goodier

  • #27
    Beth Ramsay
    “A bad attitude from a chronic complaining employee is like a cancer; it will only spread and infect others. This can take your business down in a nanosecond. You must cut out the cancer and invite them to seek employment elsewhere. Quickly.”
    Beth Ramsay, #Networking is people looking for people looking for people

  • #28
    Vishwas Chavan
    “Stop complaining, start contributing; stop crying, start smiling; and stop criticizing, start praising.”
    Vishwas Chavan

  • #29
    “It can be very seductive to tell our story to others who will listen because, lets face it, who doesn't love to 'commiserate' (in this context, meaning to share their misery) with other likeminded people. It justifies our attachment to the drama. The interesting thing about telling our story over and over is that it becomes even more deeply ingrained in our minds each time we tell it, and the universe delights in keeping whatever we claim as our story alive.”
    Dennis Merritt Jones, The Art of Uncertainty: How to Live in the Mystery of Life and Love It

  • #30
    Israelmore Ayivor
    “How I wish the police service is instructed to arrest people who over-complain! Just arrest them, do no harm to them, but make them do the "work" they complain about with hard labour!”
    Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

  • #31
    “There is a difference between really being concerned about service delivery and incompetence and just complaining for the sake of it.”
    Zelda la Grange, Good Morning, Mr Mandela (KER.BIO/AUTOBIO)

  • #32
    Israelmore Ayivor
    “Stop complaining and do something... Shut up! Rise up! Grow up! And show up! See you at the top!”
    Israelmore Ayivor
