“Divinity for the sake of the simple-minded is beautiful. Those theological assertions you write, say, or live by that you later feel foolish about, it means God still lives in you enough to tell you that they were indeed foolish. By mistakes you know you are alive.”
― Criss Jami, Salomé: In Every Inch In Every Mile

“Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.”
― Oscar Wilde

“Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness.
Listen to it carefully.”
― Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah

“Intensely selfish people are always very decided as to what they wish. They do not waste their energies in considering the good of others.”
― Ouida, Wanda, Countess von Szalras.
