Quote by Tasha Alexander

It's delicious to have people adore you, but it's exhausting, too. Particularly when your own feelings don't match theirs.

It's delicious to have people adore you, but it's exhausting

Summary

This quote conveys the conflicting emotions that arise from being adored by others. While it can be enjoyable to have people admire and appreciate you, it can also be tiresome when their affection is not reciprocated. The quote suggests that the burden of maintaining the faade of adoration to satisfy others is both mentally and emotionally draining, especially when one's true feelings do not align with the expectations placed upon them. It highlights the dichotomy between the pleasurable aspects of being admired and the emotional strain caused when one's personal emotions diverge from the adoration received.

A farmer who had a quarrelsome family called his sons and told them to lay a bunch of sticks before him. Then, after laying the sticks parallel to one another and binding them, he challenged his sons, one after one, to pick up the bundle and break it. They all tried, but in vain. Then, untying the bundle, he gave them the sticks to break one by one. This they did with the greatest ease. Then said the father, Thus, my sons, as long as you remain united, you are a match for anything, but differ and separate, and you are undone.

A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.

I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal. Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.

Dogs are not like cats, who amusingly tolerate humans only u

Dogs are not like cats, who amusingly tolerate humans only until someone comes up with a tin opener that can be operated with a paw. Men made dogs, they took wolves and gave them human things--unnecessary intelligence, names, a desire to belong, and a twitching inferiority complex. All dogs dream wolf dreams, and know they're dreaming of biting their Maker. Every dog knows, deep in his heart, that he is a Bad Dog...
