“You don't stop laughing when you grow old, you grow old when you stop laughing.”
― George Bernard Shaw

“Introverts treasure the close relationships they have stretched so much to make.”
― Adam S. McHugh, Introverts in the Church: Finding Our Place in an Extroverted Culture

“Leave an extrovert alone for two minutes and he will reach for his cell phone. In contrast, after an hour or two of being socially “on,” we introverts need to turn off and recharge. My own formula is roughly two hours alone for every hour of socializing. This isn’t antisocial. It isn’t a sign of depression. It does not call for medication. For introverts, to be alone with our thoughts is as restorative as sleeping, as nourishing as eating. Our motto: “I’m okay, you’re okay—in small doses.”
― Jonathan Rauch

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
― Carl Gustav Jung
