Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest of violence.
Everyone has a sense of humor. If you don't laugh at jokes, you probably laugh at opinions.
Opinions cannot survive if one has no chance to fight for them.
People are usually more firmly convinced that their opinions are precious that that they are true.
Often we don't even realize who we're meant to be because we're so busy trying to live out someone else's ideas. But other people and their opinions hold no power in defining our destiny.
It is not advisable, James, to venture unsolicited opinions. You should spare yourself the embarrassing discovery of their exact value to your listener.
Our opinions do not really blossom into fruition until we have expressed them to someone else.
What it means to be authentic: - to be more concerned with truth than opinions - to be sincere and not pretend - to be free from hypocrisy: "walk your talk" - to know who you are and to be that person - to not fear others seeing your vulnerabilities - being confident to walk away from situations where you can't be yourself - being awake to your own feelings - being free from others' opinions of you - accepting and loving yourself
Do not let another day go by where your dedication to other people's opinions is greater than your dedication to your own emotions!
The opinions of others cannot damage you.
