Quote by Elbert Hubbard

To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.

To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.

Summary

This quote suggests that those who wish to avoid criticism should simply refrain from taking any action, expressing their opinions, or striving for achievements. By doing so, they essentially become stagnant and non-existent individuals. However, the underlying message is that criticism should not be feared or avoided at all costs. Instead, it should be seen as an opportunity for growth, improvement, and the pursuit of one's goals. This quote serves as a reminder that being proactive and embracing criticism is essential for personal and professional development.

This kingdom will become your best friend, your soul mate, and your love.
