The problem with self-improvement is knowing when to quit.

The problem with self-improvement is knowing when to quit.

Summary

This quote suggests that while self-improvement is important, it can also become overwhelming. It implies that there is a fine line between striving for personal growth and pushing oneself to the point of exhaustion. Knowing when to pause and accept one's current state of being is emphasized here, as the constant pursuit of self-improvement may lead to neglecting self-care and contentment. It encourages individuals to find a balance between self-improvement and self-acceptance.

To use books rightly, is to go to them for help; to appeal to them when our own knowledge and power fail; to be led by them into wider sight and purer conception than our own, and to receive from them the united sentence of the judges and councils of all time, against our solitary and unstable opinions.

The entire Jesus concept, that human sacrifice should be the substratum of a moral religion of love, strikes me as incongruous. God condemned us and Jesus saved us, and they are actually the same being? Christianity is the idea that you are so abhorrent that God had to kill himself. He had to embody the human form and send himself on a bizarre suicide mission just to revoke the disgustingness of the humans he created. I balk at suggestions that these ideas dictate to the concepts of morality and love.
