Quote by Kathy Ireland

If we get our self-esteem from superficial places, from our popularity, appearance, business success, financial situation, health, any of these, we will be disappointed, because no one can guarantee that we'll have them tomorrow.

Summary

This quote highlights the dangers of deriving self-esteem from superficial aspects of life, such as popularity, appearance, success, or wealth. It emphasizes that relying solely on these external factors for our sense of self-worth is precarious and bound to lead to disappointment. The quote suggests that true self-esteem should come from something more intrinsic and enduring, as external circumstances can change unexpectedly, making these sources of validation unpredictable and unreliable in the long run.

I feel that this award was not made to me as a man, but to my work - a life's work in the agony and sweat of the human spirit, not for glory and least of all for profit, but to create out of the materials of the human spirit something which did not exist before. So this award is only mine in trust. It will not be difficult to find a dedication for the money part of it commensurate with the purpose and significance of its origin. But I would like to do the same with the acclaim too, by using this moment as a pinnacle from which I might be listened to by the young men and women already dedicated to the same anguish and travail, among whom is already that one who will some day stand here where I am standing.
