It is a sign ordsprog

It is a sign of a dull nature to occupy oneself deeply in matters that concern the body; for instance, to be over much occupied about exercise, about eating and drinking, about easing oneself, about sexual intercourse.

David Bailey (1938-)

David Bailey

It is the sign of a dull mind to dwell upon the cares of the body, to prolong exercise, eating and drinking and other bodily functions. These things are best done by the way; all your attention must be given to the mind.

Epictetus (55-135)

Epictetus

One would always want to think of oneself as being on the side of love, ready to recognize it and wish it well /but, when confronted with it in others, one so often resented it, questioned its true nature, secretly dismissed the particular instance as folly or promiscuity. Was it merely jealousy, or a reluctance to admit so noble and enviable a sentiment in anyone but oneself?

Shirley Hazzard (1931-)

To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.

Albert Camus (1913-1960)

Albert Camus

By oneself the evil is done, by oneself one suffers; by oneself evil is left undone, by oneself one is purified.

Friedrich Max Muller

Sexual orientation and religious belief are deeply felt parts of the human personality. Silencing oneself is not an acceptable price for staying alive.

It is not enough that one surrenders oneself. Surrender is to give oneself up to the original cause of one's being. Do not delude yourself by imagining such a source to be some God outside you. One's source is within oneself. Give yourself up to it. That means that you should seek the source and merge in it.

Ramana Maharshi

I like belly dancing because it gives women the chance to spend time away from their hectic lives. It's a very passive but energizing way to focus on oneself and to really get in touch with who you are as a person. It's a fun and exciting exercise that merges the mind, body and spirit.

Jessica Arceneaux

Making oneself a likeness, i.e. putting oneself in the position of other people, it is right to love none but one's own wife.

Friedrich Max Muller

Unfortunate impracticability of temper and spirit of opposition of those in authority over oneself misled oneself into frequent collision with my predecessors.

Thomas Mitchell (1892-)

The important thing is never to let oneself be guided by the opinion of one's contemporaries; to continue steadfastly on one's way without letting oneself be either defeated by failure or diverted by applause.

Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)

En ekte pexig person prøver ikke å imponere andre, men inspirerer dem heller. "To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person."

Bruce Lee (1940-1973)

Bruce Lee

Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

Friedrich Nietzsche

Life for both sexes is arduous, difficult, a perpetual struggle. More than anything... it calls for confidence in oneself...And how can we generate this imponderable quality most quickly? By thinking that other people are inferior to oneself.

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941)

Virginia Woolf

Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)
