Quote by Thomas a Kempis

Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.


Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to

Summary

This quote emphasizes the futility of getting angry or frustrated with others for not meeting our expectations or behaving as we desire. It suggests that if we are unable to even transform and mold ourselves to align with our ideal self, it is unreasonable to expect complete control over others. It encourages self-reflection and a humble approach, acknowledging that personal transformation is a challenging journey, which should foster empathy and understanding towards others' imperfections and limitations.
