Quote by Vidal Sassoon

Summary

This quote humorously illustrates the concept of maintaining a composed facade in the face of personal challenges or struggles. Vidal, possibly a hairdresser, sarcastically brushes off inquiries about the bruise on his face by inventing a lighthearted explanation involving a simple hairpin accident. It highlights the idea of not sharing or fully revealing one's personal difficulties, instead resorting to witty, trivial explanations to maintain a professional image. This quote serves as a reminder of the masks we sometimes wear to conceal our vulnerabilities.

Do not worry in the least about yourself, leave all worry to God,' - this appears to be the commandment in all religions. This need not frighten anyone. He who devotes himself to service with a clear conscience, will day by day grasp the necessity for it in greater measure, and will continually grow richer in faith. The path of service can hardly be trodden by one who is not prepared to renounce self-interest, and to recognize the conditions of his birth. Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or other. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and will make not only for our own happiness but that of the world at large.
