I was a bit shut down by a lot of the snarkiness and biliousness in some of the poetry blogs. I was tired of aesthetic wars that weren't productive and were becoming mean-spirited. I was probably overworked as well, so I stopped reading and writing for about a year.

I still believe one of the most important choices is how we treat others. What good does it do you to build a huge muscular, impressive body if you are small and underdeveloped on the inside? I’ve always felt that success begins on the inside and reaching our true potential gets blocked when we are small-spirited.

If there were a God he would want us to be better spirited than to take his word for everything.
Stephen Fry
Image
If the enemy stays spirited it is difficult to crush him.
Miyamoto Musashi
Image
The trick, though, is to not lose compassion, to not allow the sense of absurdity to outweigh the awareness of real beings, with real feelings. Mean-spirited humor turns the world into cardboard, the way Midas's simple-minded greed turned food into inedible and useless stuff.

To me, Hewitt and Nadal would be the best spirited fighters I've ever seen on the tennis court.
Mats Wilander

Faithful horoscope-watching, practiced daily, provides just the sort of small but warm and infinitely reassuring fillip that gets matters off to a spirited start.
Shana Alexander

The Christian in prayer comes up close to God, with a humble boldness of faith, and takes hold of him, wrestles with him yea, will not let him go without a blessing... They are only a few noble-spirited souls, who dare take heaven by force, that are fit for this calling.
William Gurnall

He is man whose heart is spirited and eyes are wet each moment on account of the sorrow, compassion, virtue, beauty, and nobility that decorate this world.
Kedar Joshi

Suffering raises up those souls that are truly great it is only small souls that are made mean-spirited by it.
Alexandra David-Neel

The blues is not the creation of a crushed-spirited people. It is the product of a forward-looking, upward-striving people.
Albert Murray
Image
God is a mean-spirited, pugnacious bully bent on revenge against His children for failing to live up to his impossible standards.
Walt Whitman
Image
Are you becoming more sweet-spirited, more like Jesus? Are you looking soberly in the mirror each day and praying, ‘Lord, I want to conform to Your image in every area of my life’? Or has your bitterness taken root, turning into rebellion and hardness of heart? Have you learned to shield yourself from the convicting voice of God’s Spirit?
David Wilkerson

I never could tell a joke. I just started talking to the audience, and when the drunks would yell, Hey, when do the broads come on? I got good at saying, Relax. Clear your skin up first. They called me the insult guy, but it's never mean-spirited. I'm just exaggerating everything about us and about life.
Don Rickles
Image
When you're out there in America, meeting with regular people, it's a pretty mellow, relaxed, kind-hearted country. The direction from the top, from the President, is following mean-spirited tendencies: fear and undue caution and distrust of the other, so it's very depressing.
George Saunders
Image
Honest and sincere acts mislead the wicked and cause them to lose their path to their own goals, because mean-spirited people usually believe that people never act without deceit.
Madeleine de Souvre, marquise de Sable
Image
In a word, removing control farther away from the ordinary citizen and taxpayer is tantamount to giving the intelligent, far-sighted and public spirited elements in society a longer lever to work with.
Edward Alsworth Ross

The Democrats, the left has this 30-year playbook of how to destroy conservatives by simply exposing the horrible, the mean-spirited, insensitive things they say, but that isn't going to work on Trump the way it works on conservatives, for a whole host of reasons.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
Even the most independent and spirited young women can become humorless, self-absorbed, and fearful. It's a terrible preparation for life.
Christina Hoff Sommers
Image
A really great people, proud and high spirited, would face all the disasters of war rather than purchase that base prosperity which is bought at the price of national honor.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
We need spirited, energetic and strong young people whose hearts are filled with life, enthusiasm, zeal and dynamism whose souls are full of ambition, aspiration and vigor and have great goals, rising and aspiring to reach them until they eventually arrive at their destination.
Hassan al-Banna
Image
I found the speech, after listening to it in context, vile in manner, repugnant, malicious, mean-spirited and spoken in mockery of individuals and people, which is against the spirit of Islam. While I stand by the truths that he spoke, I must condemn in the strongest terms the manner in which those truths were represented.
Louis Farrakhan
Image
Working with Mario Testino was a joy. He's very young spirited, and it's always lovely and a pleasure to spend time talking to him about all different things.
Cara Delevingne
