There are two types of women - the type that makes a man feel like he is the best and the type that makes a man feel like becoming a better man. And then I suppose it is all up to the man and what he wants in life - whether he wants to go through life feeling like he is the best or if he wants to go through life becoming better and better. In reality, we are all at our worst when we have ceased the process of become better and better. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Becoming Better quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Just because you're in the process of bettering yourself doesn't mean there won't be times when you make questionable choices, respond out of character, lack proper communication, or let negativity get the best of yourself. That's all a part of the process of becoming better. How else would you know what needs cleaning up if you don't stand in your mess every once in a while? ~ Emily Maroutian
Becoming Better quotes by Emily Maroutian
The problem with thinking that you are the absolute best, is that it leaves no room for you to become any better and while you live life thinking that you're the best, truth is a lot of people around you are already better and becoming even more better. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Becoming Better quotes by C. JoyBell C.
One of the biggest things happening in the art world is this idea of expansion. No one embodies this aspect of what art is becoming better than James Franco. ~ Jeffrey Deitch
Becoming Better quotes by Jeffrey Deitch
I believe that our very survival depends upon us becoming better systems thinkers. ~ Margaret J. Wheatley
Becoming Better quotes by Margaret J. Wheatley
One reason the concept of becoming better can scare us is that it requires us to step out of a place that we recognize and have possibly grown comfortable with. ~ Sara Milne Rowe
Becoming Better quotes by Sara Milne Rowe
Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe; to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come; and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race in the future years to come. ~ Denis Diderot
Becoming Better quotes by Denis Diderot
Only you can decide what you become. ~ Seth Adam Smith
Becoming Better quotes by Seth Adam Smith
There are people who learn political information for reasons other than becoming better voters. Just as sports fans love to follow their favorite teams even if they cannot influence the outcomes of games, so there are also "political fans" who enjoy following political issues and cheering for their favorite candidates, parties, or ideologies.

Unfortunately, much like sports fans, political fans tend to evaluate new information in a highly biased way. They overvalue anything that supports their preexisting views, and to undervalue or ignore new data that cuts against them, even to the extent of misinterpreting simple data that they could easily interpret correctly in other contexts. Moreover, those most interested in politics are also particularly prone to discuss it only with others who agree with their views, and to follow politics only through like-minded media. ~ Ilya Somin
Becoming Better quotes by Ilya Somin
Looking down from my throne full of thorns, I glanced at the people on Earth. Oh, man. I despised them. It wasn't like they were becoming better humans or anything, Devil forbid. In fact, they all roasted in their sin, mayonnaised in their stupidity, tomato-sauced in their envy and anger toward each other ... ~ Cameron Jace
Becoming Better quotes by Cameron Jace
It might seem that security should gradually improve over time as security problems are discovered and corrected, but unfortunately this does not seem to be the case. System software is growing ever more complicated, hackers are becoming better and better organized, and computers are connecting more and more intimately on the Internet. Security is an ongoing battle that can never really be won. ~ Evi Nemeth
Becoming Better quotes by Evi Nemeth
Few experiences are more satisfying than becoming someone we always imagined we could be. ~ Gina Greenlee
Becoming Better quotes by Gina Greenlee
A Christian is nothing but a sinful man who has put himself to school for Christ for the honest purpose of becoming better. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Becoming Better quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
If what you are able to give to others, in this life, is only proportionate to what you received from people in your past - it only means one thing. You are a victim of life's circumstances, a direct and utter equivalent of what has been done to you. Rise above and become more! Be better than what happened to you. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Becoming Better quotes by C. JoyBell C.
It's important to make a distinction between becoming more precise and becoming better. ~ Adrian Tomine
Becoming Better quotes by Adrian Tomine
The goal is always about the next story. It's always about the thing I haven't done before. It's about learning, or it's about becoming better, and it's about whatever story grabs hold of me. ~ Joss Whedon
Becoming Better quotes by Joss Whedon
Unhappiness comes from living the life of two people
the one people want you to be and the one you want to be. ~ Shannon L. Alder
Becoming Better quotes by Shannon L. Alder
Before World War I, self-improvement meant being less self-involved, less vain: helping others, focusing on schoolwork, becoming better read, and cultivating empathy. Author ~ Peggy Orenstein
Becoming Better quotes by Peggy Orenstein
How we like to hold on! Sometimes we're unwilling to let things go just because we know them, and they feel "safe" to us, even if we're talking about something like behaviors that harm us, like defensiveness or addictions. We hesitate to let go because doing so will expose us to the unknown in our own lives, and we'll have to deal with life without this part of ourselves that we've grown so accustomed to. But if we're ever to move on to the next thing in life, if we're to grow and develop as people, we may have to let go of things that are holding us back - behaviors and beliefs and sometimes even people. There is no formula that can tell us what we should let go of and what we should hold on to. But if we listen to our hearts, we can know what still serves us well, and what is keeping us from moving on and becoming better people. ~ Tom Walsh
Becoming Better quotes by Tom Walsh
Our faith institutions have the best product that God can offer; but we have the worst customer service imaginable. ~ Johnnie Dent Jr.
Becoming Better quotes by Johnnie Dent Jr.
You make this world better by changing your thoughts and by becoming better. ~ Debasish Mridha
Becoming Better quotes by Debasish Mridha
People usually live up to their expectations. The kid picked first for dodgeball feels a duty to be the best, and to perform the best, and to be better than anyone else. They feel a need to execute. And, the only way they are going to achieve that is to make their body run faster, jump higher, and move quicker.
If more fat kids were chosen first for activities and sports and group/team dynamics, they would automatically start to change their lives to fit into the expectations that surround those moments. Any time a child is picked last, they know it's because people expect the least of them, and so they never actually have a need to rise above that. ~ Dan Pearce
Becoming Better quotes by Dan Pearce
Every day, and in every way, I am becoming better and better. ~ Emile Coue
Becoming Better quotes by Emile Coue
Girls did not always organize their thinking about themselves around the physical. Before World War I, self-improvement meant being less self-involved, less vain: helping others, focusing on schoolwork, becoming better read, and cultivating empathy. Author Joan Jacobs Brumberg highlighted this change in her book The Body Project by comparing the New Year's resolutions of girls at the end of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: "Resolved," wrote a girl in 1892, "to think before speaking. To work seriously. To be self-restrained in conversations and actions. Not to let my thoughts wander. To be dignified. Interest myself more in others. ~ Peggy Orenstein
Becoming Better quotes by Peggy Orenstein
In Music Through the Eyes of Faith, Harold Best defines excellence as "the process of becoming better than I once was. ~ Bob Kauflin
Becoming Better quotes by Bob Kauflin
We must become the person who is ready to accept the thing/s that we want. Sometimes, what you want is already waiting for you, alongside the person that you are capable of becoming. Alongside the destined you. So in between here and there, you have that journey, that process, of becoming that person. Wiser, stronger, gentler. We think that to attain what we want, means simply to achieve what we wish to attain. But if we could only see ourselves
our destined selves
already there in the future, standing hand-in-hand with our desires, we would always know that our worthy desires are objects that call us unto a higher calling, a higher state of existence. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Becoming Better quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Individuals who are focused on becoming better are individuals not easily offended. You can only offend those who are not on a path of constant growth and enlightenment. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Becoming Better quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Enlightenment is a destructive process. It
has nothing to do with becoming better or being happier. Enlightenment is the
crumbling away of untruth. It's seeing
through the facade of pretence. It's the
complete eradication of everything we
imagined to be true. ~ Adyashanti
Becoming Better quotes by Adyashanti
Eager to see the colours of life
The darkness giving away to light
I set my soul ablaze
By books at candlelight
And my heart on fire
By decisions under sunlight. ~ Tania Ferguson
Becoming Better quotes by Tania Ferguson
If you're a manager and you're stuck doing the same thing year after year, you're going to get stale and not know how to motivate people. Part of becoming better at what you do requires challenging yourself on a constant basis. ~ Art Briles
Becoming Better quotes by Art Briles
People often romanticize children or adults with special needs, as if they are innocent-yet-wise creatures who can humble us all into becoming better humans. First of all, nobody can be innocent and wise at the same time. That's another one of those impossible combinations. It's as unachievable and improbable as Brenda. Or Carli. And secondly, I'm not suggesting the ladies of Camp Anchor were either one of those things in particular. But they owned their own flaws, and I am grateful I got to meet them when I was only fourteen. I left camp knowing a bunch of women who weren't afraid to claim the guy they wanted to dance with; they didn't change a thing for the men they loved. ~ Amy Schumer
Becoming Better quotes by Amy Schumer
I do not know two finer people and could not imagine better news. May your lives together be happy and long. Congratulations, brother. ~ Cassandra Clare
Becoming Better quotes by Cassandra Clare
Old men do it better. We're not so sensitive in certain areas. ~ Robert Plant
Becoming Better quotes by Robert Plant
If this were the problem, just giving people more and better information would correct their knowledge problem. But we don't just have a knowledge problem - we have a habit-of-being problem; the problem of whiteness is a problem of what we expect, our ways of being, bodily-ness, and how we understand ourselves as "placed" in time. Whiteness is a problem of being shaped to think that other people are the problem. Another ~ Alexis Shotwell
Becoming Better quotes by Alexis Shotwell
And when great souls die, after a period peace blooms, slowly and always irregularly. Spaces fill with a kind of soothing electric vibration. Our senses, restored, never to be the same, whisper to us. They existed. They existed. We can be. Be and be better. For they existed. ~ Maya Angelou
Becoming Better quotes by Maya Angelou
In our discussions here at the forum there was no trace of the futile debate about what is better, capitalism or socialism ... We should seek a synthesis of ideas and values that have proven their viability ... ~ Mikhail Gorbachev
Becoming Better quotes by Mikhail Gorbachev
ECassChoosesPikachu: Patrick's new favorite joke: What do you call an alligator in a vest? An "investigator" HA!
JoseyInHeels to ECassChoosesPikachu: The kid needs better jokes
SeanCassinova to ECassChoosesPikachu: MY NEPHEW IS BRILLIANT! ~ L. H. Cosway
Becoming Better quotes by L. H. Cosway
Many intellectuals in the Western world defended the half-century (1959–2008) dictatorship of Fidel Castro of Cuba by noting, for example, under Castro's rule the literacy rate in Cuba rose to a hundred percent. However, Cubans were not allowed to read anything forbidden by the communist regime. In the view of Castro's defenders, it is better to be unfree and literate than to be free and illiterate. The Torah's view, however, would seem to be the opposite; it is better to be free and illiterate, just as it is better to eat a poor man's food and be free than to eat a rich man's food as a slave.
Furthermore, the very concept of freedom carries with it the possibility of improvement of one's circumstances. The illiterate are free to learn to read; the poor are free to work, retain the fruits of their labors, and improve their lot in life - perhaps even become wealthy, as so many have in the freedom of the Western, Bible-based world. ~ Dennis Prager
Becoming Better quotes by Dennis Prager
Swept away was a fortuitous choice of words: it made her mad. She'd been swept away once - she'd let herself be, hoped and desired to be; that's how it always went in romantic stories.
She'd never be that passive again. It was far, far better to choose, ~ Rachel Hartman
Becoming Better quotes by Rachel Hartman
If I seem to boast more than is becoming, my excuse is that I brag for humanity rather than for myself. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Becoming Better quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Of course we will continue to work for cheaper electricity in the homes and on the farms of America; for better and cheaper transportation; for low interest rates; for sounder home financing; for better banking; for the regulation of security issues; for reciprocal trade among nations and for the wiping out of slums. And my friends, for all of these we have only begun to fight. ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
Becoming Better quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt
No age can have everthing and in material ways ours is more fortunate than any preceding one. Our ancestors appear to have mastered the art of living better than we are able to when an easy conscience, largely due to the unshaken faith of the time, left a marging of spiritual energy with which to enjoy life. ~ Flora Thompson
Becoming Better quotes by Flora Thompson
Dear Maribor, you're heavy," Hadrian growled as he untied the rope.

"No, I'm not. You're wounded." Royce moved his hand and felt the blood-soaked clothes. "God, we're bleeding like a slit throat."

"You're bleeding more than me," Hadrian said.

"Oh, does that make you feel better?"

"Actually it does. ~ Michael J. Sullivan
Becoming Better quotes by Michael J. Sullivan
Be compassionate ... and take responsibility for each other. If we only learned those lessons, this world would be a better place. ~ Mitch Albom
Becoming Better quotes by Mitch Albom
Everybody's always looking for the person they're better than ~ A.S. King
Becoming Better quotes by A.S. King
Every valuable human being must be a radical and a rebel, for what he must aim at is to make things better than they are ~ Niels Bohr
Becoming Better quotes by Niels Bohr
With improved historical records, and easier access to them, we actually have better reasons for hating one another, for anger and violence toward one another. ~ Richard Rohr
Becoming Better quotes by Richard Rohr
I got the chance to be the secretary of state; I'm an international relations specialist. It doesn't get better than that. ~ Condoleezza Rice
Becoming Better quotes by Condoleezza Rice
Science is a search for basic truths about the Universe, a search which develops statements that appear to describe how the Universe works, but which are subject to correction, revision, adjustment, or even outright rejection, upon the presentation of better or conflicting evidence. ~ James Randi
Becoming Better quotes by James Randi
It is better to bow to the dictates of the wind than to try to chase or chain it. ~ Sharon Shinn
Becoming Better quotes by Sharon Shinn
I love what I do, and I love doing it, and I love getting better at it. I just am not willing to risk ... Much ... to go on to the next level. I don't want to risk my personal sanity or happiness or my family or the love of my life. ~ Summer Phoenix
Becoming Better quotes by Summer Phoenix
I would never believe that I was better off without the Drakes and they without me. Growing up, I'd seen them more often than my own grandparents. They were part of my landscape. And if that particular landscape suddenly included earthquakes and volcanoes and mudslides, then too bad; I already built a house there and dug the well and planted crops. It was an analogy my parents had to understand. They were homesteaders; they knew that once you found your home, you dug your roots. Period. ~ Alyxandra Harvey
Becoming Better quotes by Alyxandra Harvey
We in America have learned bitter lessons from two world wars: It is better to be here [in Europe] ready to protect the peace, than to take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond only after freedom is lost. We've learned that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to tyrannical governments with an expansionist intent. ~ Ronald Reagan
Becoming Better quotes by Ronald Reagan
London is like the grave in one respect
any man can make himself at home there; and whenever a man finds himself homeless elsewhere, he had better either die or go to London. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Becoming Better quotes by Nathaniel Hawthorne
The inventor of the plow did more good than the maker of the first rosary - because, say what you will, plowing is better than praying. ~ Robert Green Ingersoll
Becoming Better quotes by Robert Green Ingersoll
Like all romancers, she is a little terrified at seeing one of her wildest conceits admitted by the hard-headed world. If our dream comes true, we are almost afraid to believe it; for that is the best of all good fortune, and nothing better can happen to any of us. ~ Willa Cather
Becoming Better quotes by Willa Cather
The death of a social machine has never been heralded by a disharmony or a dysfunction; on the contrary, social machines make a habit of feeding on the contradictions they give rise to, on the crises they provoke, on the anxieties they engender, and on the infernal operations they regenerate. Capitalism has learned this, and has ceased doubting itself, while even socialists have abandoned belief in the possibility of capitalism's natural death by attrition. No one has ever died from contradictions. And the more it breaks down, the more it schizophrenizes, the better it works, the American way. ~ Gilles Deleuze
Becoming Better quotes by Gilles Deleuze
Ultimately, the law will collapse under its own weight. Until then, we have to start building a better health care system in its place. And we need to start with a new principle: Put the patient in the driver's seat. That's how we can build a healthy economy. ~ Paul Ryan
Becoming Better quotes by Paul Ryan
Better than Medicine A glass of bitter beer or pale ale, taken with the principal meal of the day, does more good, and less harm, than any medicine the physician can prescribe. Dr Carpenter in The Scottish Review, (1750) ~ Hugh Morrison
Becoming Better quotes by Hugh Morrison
It is not from ourselves that we learn to be better than we are. ~ Wendell Berry
Becoming Better quotes by Wendell Berry
Don't put your wand there, boy!" roared Moody. "What if it ignited? Better wizards than you have lost buttocks, you know!" "Who d'you know who's lost a buttock?" the violet-haired woman asked Mad-Eye interestedly. "Never you mind, you just keep your wand out of your back pocket!" growled Mad-Eye. "Elementary wand safety, nobody bothers about it anymore . . ." He stumped off toward the kitchen. "And I saw that," he added irritably, as the woman rolled her eyes at the ceiling. ~ J.K. Rowling
Becoming Better quotes by J.K. Rowling
Better to love for no reason than have reasons not to love. ~ Marty Rubin
Becoming Better quotes by Marty Rubin
You don't have to become something that you aren't to become better than you are. ~ Sidney Poitier
Becoming Better quotes by Sidney Poitier
I was receiving at least ninety-nine incredible, positive, and life-changing responses for every negative or abusive one, yet I couldn't stop looking at the one percent. I couldn't get them out of my mind. I let them kill my excitement. I let them destroy my love for what I was doing. I let them shut me down. I let them bully me into changing the way I did things around here.
I almost stopped. I almost gave up. I almost quit writing.
But every time, I remembered my dad.
He taught me better than that.
And I forced myself to be excited again. I forced myself to see the goal and vision of why I was excited in the first place. I forced myself to start skipping over the negative replies and start diving into the loving ones. ~ Dan Pearce
Becoming Better quotes by Dan Pearce
I am an astronomer, and my job is to look to the heavens to better understand the universe and our place in it. ~ Brian Schmidt
Becoming Better quotes by Brian Schmidt
I have the ability to see results six months later and there's no better feeling. We impact on thousands of people in the world. And in New York, which is the roughest, when people appreciate what we're doing, it puts the Simoniz back on the apple. ~ Curtis Sliwa
Becoming Better quotes by Curtis Sliwa
We are conditioned by the national parks to link beauty and environmental value, a prejudice that makes as much sense as thinking attractive people form better friendships than plain people. ~ Charles Wohlforth
Becoming Better quotes by Charles Wohlforth
When they walked inside, Meryn inhaled deeply. The only thing that would make this place smell better was if it sold books. ~ Alanea Alder
Becoming Better quotes by Alanea Alder
Be yourself. There is no one better. ~ Taylor Swift
Becoming Better quotes by Taylor Swift
It doesn't matter if you can't speak the same language. If you have pictures, or better still, if you can draw things, then you can communicate anything to anyone. ~ Antony Gormley
Becoming Better quotes by Antony Gormley
More and more I knew my budding world was ruined if he were free in it. As a specimen Mr. Wallace might be my pride. Glory to him in a jar. But free! Better to release the sweet moving tiger or the delicate snake, the monumental elephant. I was just a castaway to be devoured. ~ William H Gass
Becoming Better quotes by William H Gass
Conan mentally termed the creatures black men, for lack of a better term; instinctively he knew that these tall ebony beings were not men, as he understood the term. No ~ Robert E. Howard
Becoming Better quotes by Robert E. Howard
I have found, writing a blog, that being non-opaque is necessary. You pretty much have to say what you know in much more firm terms or risk that the legions who always know more than you do will tell the story better. ~ Kara Swisher
Becoming Better quotes by Kara Swisher
It's like an addiction, one I battle every day. It appeared at first drink. I was becoming the very thing I feared---my father's son. I wanted to be as far away from that Threshold as possible. I swore I'd never take another sip, no matter how crazy it made me. No matter how much it called to me. Resisting became easier with time. ~ Sara Ella
Becoming Better quotes by Sara Ella
I do believe in true bisexuality. We all have the capacity. [My partner] Julie is much more bisexual than I am. The more the world understands their bisexuality the better we'll be. I'm attracted to souls. I can be attracted to both. ~ Melissa Etheridge
Becoming Better quotes by Melissa Etheridge
It's better to hang around people that want to see you succeed than to hang around those that threatens your success. ~ Abdulazeez Henry Musa
Becoming Better quotes by Abdulazeez Henry Musa
There is economics in biology, nothing is free, everything has to be paid for, there are costs as well as benefits to everything in life, for example, there was never sufficient natural selection pressure to develop better eyes, individuals could earn other things like smiley smiles rather than waste energy & time on better eyes ... ~ Richard Dawkins
Becoming Better quotes by Richard Dawkins
It is better that ten guilty escape than one innocent suffer. ~ William Blackstone
Becoming Better quotes by William Blackstone
