Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or level:
“When you realize how hard it is to know the truth about yourself, you understand that even the most exhaustive and well-meaning autobiography, determined to tell the truth, represents, at best, a guess. There have been times in my life when I felt incredibly happy. Life was full. I seemed productive. Then I thought,Am I really happy or am I merely masking a deep depression with frantic activity? If I dont know such basic things about myself, who does?”
—Phyllis Rose (b. 1942)
“Jealousy is indeed a poor medium to secure love, but it is a secure medium to destroy ones self-respect. For jealous people, like dope-fiends, stoop to the lowest level and in the end inspire only disgust and loathing.”
—Emma Goldman (18691940)
