Never esteem people (including yourself) more because they have money, nor think less of anyone (including yourself) because they lack it. Virtue is the only just reason for respecting anyone, lack of virtue the only reason for holding anyone in low regard.
William Penn
Image
Convictions that outcomes are determined by one's own actions can be either demoralizing or heartening, depending on the level of self-judged efficacy. People who regard outcomes as personally determined, but who lack the requisite skills, would experience low self-efficacy and view the activities with a sense of futility
Albert Bandura

Everybody's talking about the new democratic world and whether high fashion is relevant. But without high there is no low. I don't like to intellectualize. I've always said fashion is like roast chicken: You don't have to think about it to know it's delicious.

Friendship is being there when someone's feeling low and not being afraid to kick them.

Those with a high level of confidence may have as many or more weaknesses than those with low self-esteem. The difference is this instead of dwelling on their handicaps, they compensate for them by dwelling on their strengths.
Alan Loy McGinnis
Image
How horribly rapid everything has been, from the days when men were not ashamed to talk of souls and of suffering and of hope to these low days of smiles that will never again be sly enough to hide the knowledge of betrayal and deceit.
Ayi Kwei Armah

Women are very attracted to a low voice because it's linked to testosterone, which for millions of years was a sign that men had very good spacial skills and would have been very good at hunting and finding their way back home.
Helen Fisher
Image
History has not dealt kindly with the aftermath of protracted periods of low risk premiums.

My school spirit is at an all time low, I'm losing my status at the school.
Frank Zappa

As long as there are people in education making excuses for failure, cursing future generations with a culture of low expectations, denying children access to the best that has been thought and written, because Nemo and the Mister Men are more relevant, the battle needs to be joined.
Michael Gove
Image
I think the writer's quite low down in the hierarchy really. But the fact that they took the piss out of Nicholas [Hynter] who, besides being the director, is also director of the National Theatre is, I'd have thought, slightly more risky.
Alan Bennett
Image
I would that I were low laid in my grave. I am not worth this coil that's made for me.

Gentle and low, an excellent thing in woman.
William Shakespeare

The price of clothes may be low, but they are paid for with human lives.

we often observe that there is abundance of capital to be had at low rates of interest, while there are also large numbers of artisans starving for want of employment.
William Stanley Jevons
Image
When you live from freelance check to freelance check, your mind is always on What's the next piece I'm going to write, or draw, that'll pay this month's rent? And so going out to play ball with my kids was a low priority.
Al Jaffee

The repugnance to animal food is not the effect of experience, but is an instinct. It appeared more beautiful to live low and farehard in many respects and though I never did so, I went far enough to please my imagination.
Henry David Thoreau
