Resentments lodge inside you, causing you to lose touch with your inherent worth, your joy, and - more important - your God-loving heart.
Debbie Ford
Image
Resentments are like stray dogs,if you don't pet them, they will go away.
Sandi Bachom
Image
Resentments are the rocket fuel that lives in the tip of my saber.
Charlie Sheen
Image
Resentments are hardened chunks of anger. They loosen up and dissolve with forgiveness and letting go.
Melody Beattie
Image
Resentments, carried too far, expose us to a fate analogous to that of the fish-hawk, when he strikes his talons too deep into a fish beyond his capacity to lift, and is carried under and drowned by it.
Christian Nestell Bovee
Image
Emotionally, in our minds, we get so filled with resentments where we've got a story about absolutely everything.
Chuck Palahniuk
Image
To the happy all things come: happiness can even bring the dead back to life. It is our resentments, our dreariness, our hate and envy, unrecognized by us, which keeps us miserable. Yet these things are in our heads, not out of our hands we own them. We can throw them out if we choose.
Fay Weldon
Image
So much of what holds us back in life are the long-held resentments stemming from childhood.
Gabrielle Bernstein
Image
You may wish to be loving - you may even try with all your might - but your love will never be pure unless you are free from resentment. When we are free from resentment, loving is effortless. When we have to try hard to love, this is generally a sign that we are repressing our resentments.
John Gray
Image
It is easier for an artful Man, who is not in Love, to persuade his Mistress he has a Passion for her, and to succeed in his Pursuits, than for one who loves with the greatest Violence. True Love hath ten thousand Griefs, Impatiencies and Resentments, that render a Man unamiable in the Eyes of the Person whose Affection he sollicits.
Joseph Addison
Image
Humor is the great thing, the saving thing after all. The minute it crops up, all our hardnesses yield, all our irritations, and resentments flit away, and a sunny spirit takes their place.
Mark Twain
Image
All of us carry around countless bags of dusty old knickknacks dated from childhood: collected resentments, long list of wounds of greater or lesser significance, glorified memories, absolute certainties that later turn out to be wrong. Humans are emotional pack rats. These bags define us.
Marya Hornbacher
Image
Never hold resentments for the person who tells you what you need to hear count them among your truest, most caring, and valuable friends.
Mike Norton
Image
To stand before the Holy One of eternity is to change. Resentments cannot be held with the same tenacity when we enter his gracious light.
Richard J. Foster
Image
There are no justified resentments.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Expectations are resentments under construction.
Anne Lamott
Image
Just as black anger often proved counterproductive, so have these white resentments distracted attention from the real culprits of the middle class squeeze - a corporate culture rife with inside dealing, questionable accounting practices, and short-term greed.
Barack Obama
Image
There was human goodness in the world, she thought-all caught up with desires and dreams, regrets and bitterness, resentments and power, but it was there.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Expect much from yourself and little from others and you will avoid incurring resentments
Confucius
Image
When two friends part they should lock up each other's secrets and exchange keys. The truly noble mind has no resentments.
Diogenes
Image
Forgiveness is a strange thing. It can sometimes be easier to forgive our enemies than our friends. It can be hardest of all to forgive people we love. Like all of life's important coping skills, the ability to forgive and the capacity to let go of resentments most likely take root very early in our lives.
Fred Rogers
Image
He was too tough to experience disappointments and resentments - negative affections. In this nihilist fin de siècle, he was affirmation. Right through to illness and death. Why did I speak of him in the past? He laughed, he is laughing, he is here. It's your sadness, idiot, he'd say.
Jean-Francois Lyotard
Image
We are all smiling in the picture, three brothers having a grand old time just playing around in the living room, no agendas, no buried resentments or permanent scars. Even under the best of circumstances, there's just something so damn tragic about growing up.
Jonathan Tropper
Image
I have always liked the phrase nursing a grudge because many people are tender of their resentments as of the thing nearest their hearts.
Marilynne Robinson
