“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.”
― Dale Carnegie, How to Win Friends & Influence People

“Dread remorse when you are tempted to err, Miss Eyre; remorse is the poison of life.”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

“Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed, is a most undesirable sentiment. If you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time. On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.”
― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”
― Alexander Pope
