Putting someone down with name calling reveals your own low

Summary

This quote suggests that when you belittle or insult someone using derogatory language, it actually reflects your own lack of self-worth.

By resorting to such behavior, it becomes apparent that you are lacking self-esteem or confidence, as you rely on degrading others to boost your own sense of value. Essentially, the quote highlights how tearing others down through name-calling only exposes one's own insecurities and issues with self-esteem.

Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.
