Contrast Agent

Famous quotes containing the words contrast and/or agent:

“In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.”
—Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

“Caution is the confidential agent of selfishness.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
