The one who complains about the way the ball bounces is like

Summary

This quote suggests that individuals who complain or find fault with the outcomes they experience are often the ones responsible for creating those outcomes in the first place. Just as the person who drops a ball is likely to be the one who complains about how it bounces, it implies that taking personal accountability for our actions and accepting the consequences is more productive than blaming external factors. It encourages self-reflection and responsibility rather than placing blame on external circumstances.

Truth must be sought at all costs, but separate isolated truths will not do. Truth is like life; it has to be taken on its entirety or not at all. . . . We must welcome truth even if it reproaches and inconveniences us -- even if it appears in the place where we thought it could not be found.

Archbishop Fulton Sheen

If you teach a poor young man to shave himself, and keep his

If you teach a poor young man to shave himself, and keep his razor in order, you may contribute more to the happiness of his life than in giving him a thousand guineas. This sum may be soon spent, the regret only remaining of having foolishly consumed it; but in the other case, he escapes the frequent vexation of waiting for barbers, and of their sometimes dirty fingers, offensive breaths, and dull razors.

Benjamin Franklin

It is when you lose sight of yourself, that you lose your way. To keep your truth in sight you must keep yourself in sight and the world to you should be a mirror to reflect to you your image; the world should be a mirror that you reflect upon.
