Every normal person, in fact, is only normal on the average. His ego approximates to that of the psychotic in some part or other and to a greater or lesser extent.

Sigmund Freud

Even jealousy is based on fantasies, a fantasy that someone else has what belongs to you.

Anna Deavere Smith

He who obeys, does not listen to himself.

Friedrich Nietzsche

When you don't want anything from people, they lose their power over you.

People tend to take pride in who they are. And that's a bad idea, because that stops you from becoming who you could be. Because, if you're proud of who you are, you won't let that go when it's necessary; you won't step away from it.

Jordan Peterson

People who want the most approval get the least and the people who need approval the least get the most.

When ego is in control it judges and punishes. But love forgives and heals.
