CEOs of top companies could probably use a dose of not-asking-for-raise behavior and less self-entitlement, rather than us trying to change girls in order to fit into the common mold of what we think a CEO looks like. ~ Adora Svitak
Self Entitlement quotes by Adora Svitak
We live in a world where people are so busy trying to find someone that's "good enough" for them, that they have failed to stop and ask themselves if they are in fact good enough for other people! This is the result of a feeling of false entitlement that has been instilled in the minds of people today. "Everyone" deserves "the best" from the "Universe" however, nobody is teaching anybody to stop and try to become the best for their own selves and for other people. When everybody thinks they are the best, everybody falls short of the best that they can actually be. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Self Entitlement quotes by C. JoyBell C.
Chloe narrowed her eyes. "Americans are all the same. Arrogant, self-entitled trash. You are evidently no exception." She looked away. "Huh, and here I assumed you had the corner on self-entitlement. Then again, I guess it complements that elitist attitude you've got going on. ~ Emily Albright
Self Entitlement quotes by Emily Albright
People, at their core, are inherently bad. Do you know this? Do you know that if someone drops their wallet, and you return it to them, you are rare? Some would say, stupid. Some would say that person's wallet was a gift from god to you and you should have taken it and the money in it. It's yours now. It's not anything to do with survival. It's self-entitlement, lack of morality. People do this without remorse or guilt. Every single day. People kill, hurt, maim, rape, without remorse or guilt. Every day. ~ Karina Halle
Self Entitlement quotes by Karina Halle
What annoys people is the idea that somebody has everything, and they're allowed to get away with anything. It's the sense of entitlement that gets up people's noses. ~ Douglas Booth
Self Entitlement quotes by Douglas Booth
Outwardly we might say we believe that liberty is a gift. But our belief that we have a 'right' to that 'gift' is the thing that's certain to kill it. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Self Entitlement quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
Like a physically beautiful but otherwise rather dull person who trades on his or her looks, Southern California swings perpetually between a profound inferiority complex and an equally profound sense of entitlement. ~ Meghan Daum
Self Entitlement quotes by Meghan Daum
Without hesitation but with a sense of entitlement, he lifted my hand to his lips. He was gentlemen-like in every way ... I don't know why I wondered if it was an act or for real. ~ Laura Albright
Self Entitlement quotes by Laura Albright
Never, never, never let yourself feel that anybody ought to do anything for you. Once you become a duty you also become a nuisance. ~ Marjorie Hillis
Self Entitlement quotes by Marjorie Hillis
Leftist big-government policies have been disastrous for black America just as they were in the countries that most Hispanics emigrated from. But like the gambling addict who keeps gambling the more he loses, those addicted to government entitlements keep increasing the size of the government even as their situation worsens. ~ Dennis Prager
Self Entitlement quotes by Dennis Prager
Being healthy in steadfastness is power need in our day of entitlement. Entitlement thinks it deserves what it receives, but steadfastness is instead thankful for what it receives because it teaches appreciation through challenge. ~ Eric Mason
Self Entitlement quotes by Eric Mason
People who are entitled delude themselves into whatever feeds their sense of superiority. They keep their mental facade standing at all costs, even if it sometimes requires being physically or emotionally abusive to those around them. ...Entitled people, because they are incapable of acknowledging their own problems openly and honestly, are incapable of improving their lives in any lasting or meaningful way. They are left chasing high after high and accumulate greater and greater levels of denial. ~ Mark Manson
Self Entitlement quotes by Mark Manson
Most people think I'm crazy - I'm in a cult called happiness, I practice the religion of kindness, I'm a quack in the pseudoscience of love, I work in the field of unlimited possibilities, my diet is that of knowledge, my orientation is irrelevant, my purpose is growth, my entitlement is freedom, my motivation is joy, my evidence is my success, and my race is humankind - I still haven't figured out the crazy part. ~ Drew Gerald
Self Entitlement quotes by Drew Gerald
I may sound naive, since everyone's decided the next two years are going to be all about 2016, but I look at what's happened over the years when there's been divided government. That's when we've done tax reform, that's when we've done entitlement reform - to move this economy forward on these big issues. ~ Rob Portman
Self Entitlement quotes by Rob Portman
If we have more people on the receiving end of government - more people as the middle class becomes sucked in more and more to these entitlement programs, for example - then we're going to be in a place where it's going to be hard to go back. It's going to be hard to go back again. It's going to be hard to take away stuff. It's not impossible. ~ Fred Thompson
Self Entitlement quotes by Fred Thompson
I think that there's something in the American psyche, it's almost this kind of right or privilege, this sense of entitlement, to resolve our conflicts with violence. There's an arrogance to that concept if you think about it. To actually have to sit down and talk, to listen, to compromise, that's hard work. ~ Michael Moore
Self Entitlement quotes by Michael Moore
Our theory is simply this: a person counts as an asshole when, and only when, he systematically allows himself to enjoy special advantages in interpersonal relations out of an entrenched sense of entitlement that immunizes him against the complaints of other people. ~ Aaron James
Self Entitlement quotes by Aaron James
In our families, we are finding that abandoning that sense of masculine entitlement actually enables us to live happier lives. ~ Michael S. Kimmel
Self Entitlement quotes by Michael S. Kimmel
The entitlement state has driven us into insolvency. ~ Joe Miller
Self Entitlement quotes by Joe Miller
Frankly, I'm not responsible for other people's perceptions and what they consider real or fake. We must abolish the entitlement that deludes us int believing that we have the right to make assumptions about people's identities and project those assumptions onto their genders and bodies. ~ Janet Mock
Self Entitlement quotes by Janet Mock
A lot of parents today are terrified that something they say to their children might make them 'feel bad.' But, hey, if they've done something wrong, they should feel bad. Kids with a sense of responsibility, not entitlement, who know when to experience gratitude and humility, will be better at navigating the social shoals of college. ~ Amy Chua
Self Entitlement quotes by Amy Chua
Everybody talks about the entitlement generation. There is no time I'd rather live in than now, and there is no generation I would more entrust the future of this country to than this one. There is a tendency to live in a nostalgic state in this country, and to think that other generations possessed an integrity and a tenacity greater than the generation that is now. I wholeheartedly disagree with that. I believe that this is a group that will rise up to any challenge that comes before them as well as any other generation in America would have done. ~ Jon Stewart
Self Entitlement quotes by Jon Stewart
God would have us cherish even the smallest of blessings, for in taking a blessing for granted we are well on our way to taking it to its grave. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Self Entitlement quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
Man is not, by nature, deserving of all that he wants. When we think that we are automatically entitled to something, that is when we start walking all over others to get it. ~ Criss Jami
Self Entitlement quotes by Criss Jami
Creative entitlement doesn't mean behaving like a princess, or acting as though the world owes you anything whatsoever. No, creative entitlement simply means believing that you are allowed to be here, and that - merely by being here - you are allowed to have a voice and a vision of your own. The ~ Elizabeth Gilbert
Self Entitlement quotes by Elizabeth Gilbert
I'd propose that each central-city child should have an entitlement from the state to attend any school in the metropolitan area outside his own district - with per pupil funds going with him. ~ James S. Coleman
Self Entitlement quotes by James S. Coleman
I spend my life constantly calling in 'imaginary' debts that aren't owed to me in order to avoid the 'real' debts that I owe to others, and so everybody ends up bankrupt. ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Self Entitlement quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
They all want to be happy. They all think they should be happy. And they're quick to trot out their most cherished document and point to where they were promised "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." But you'll find that though they all parrot that little phrase, they think none too hard about that word "pursuit". To follow, to chase, to inquire, to hunt, to seek. To track in order to overtake and capture. This they don't do. Instead, having been offered a promise of happiness, they progress to a feeling of entitlement for happiness, then make the leap that happiness should, therefore, be easily won, automatic. There's too much wrong in there to even scratch at that! ~ Geoffrey Wood
Self Entitlement quotes by Geoffrey Wood
Whatever fears, whatever sense of vulnerability may underlie such behavior, it also comes out of entitlement, the entitlement to inflict suffering and even death on other people. It breeds misery in the perpetrator and the victims. (The Longest War) ~ Rebecca Solnit
Self Entitlement quotes by Rebecca Solnit
The act of sex is healthy, normal, God-given. It's the emotions and entitlement that everyone attaches to it that is harmful. ~ Alessandra Torre
Self Entitlement quotes by Alessandra Torre
The Good Friday Agreement and the basic rights and entitlements of citizens that are enshrined within it must be defended and actively promoted by London and Dublin. ~ Gerry Adams
Self Entitlement quotes by Gerry Adams
Success in the United States is not an entitlement in China. You have to go there and earn it, and earn it the right way. ~ Howard Schultz
Self Entitlement quotes by Howard Schultz
Indeed we do have an entitlement problem: some feel so entitled to power & wealth that they're willing to undermine our economy and our democracy. ~ Annabel Park
Self Entitlement quotes by Annabel Park
Everyone wishes their life were happier."
Lily shook her head. "No. Not like beautiful people. They walk this earth, their chin up to the rest of us, and think that great happiness, great love, great joy is their right and their prerogative. Passion as the entitlement of the beautiful, the way power is the entitlement of the rich." Lily paused. "Especially when it comes to love. Beauty and love become somehow synonymous. How can plain people have great love? They can't, that's how. They can have average love, mediocre love, but their hearts can't soar. Only beautiful hearts can soar."
"I think you've hit on the nail right there," said Spencer. "Beautiful people don't necessarily have beautiful hearts."
"But it doesn't matter, don't you see? You don't fall in love with a heart. You fall in love with a woman's face, with her body, with her hair, with her smell. That's first, everything else is secondary. My mother's beauty when she was young was so extreme that she didn't understand how every man who met her didn't love her in extremis. ~ Paullina Simons
Self Entitlement quotes by Paullina Simons
For every negative,
there's a positive. It's in everything. How you deal with life, outlook, how much energy you put into achieving
something. That's why I detest entitlement. Anything that's worthwhile is going to call for some sacrifice. Nothing
worthwhile will come to you without a price. People think in sports, you have different rules. You really don't. It's
whatever motivates you, ~ Mario Andretti
Self Entitlement quotes by Mario Andretti
Many older wealthy families have learned to instill a sense of public service in their offspring. But newly affluent middle-classparents have not acquired this skill. We are using our children as symbols of leisure-class standing without building in safeguards against an overweening sense of entitlement
a sense of entitlement that may incline some young people more toward the good life than toward the hard work that, for most of us, makes the good life possible. ~ David Elkind
Self Entitlement quotes by David Elkind
Republicans should embrace the possibility that Obamacare could pave the way toward lower health care entitlement spending overall. That won't be easy. But it's not unthinkable, either. ~ Joe Klein
Self Entitlement quotes by Joe Klein
I don't think anybody should be expanding Medicaid. I think it's a mistake to create new and more expensive entitlement programs when we can't afford the ones we've got today. We've got to stop this culture of government dependence. ~ Bobby Jindal
Self Entitlement quotes by Bobby Jindal
Instead of three networks you have three hundred or three thousand. Audiences are inundated with programming, and that sometimes gives them a sense of petulant entitlement. ~ George Meyer
Self Entitlement quotes by George Meyer
When I say he's not rude, what I really mean is he's male and moneyed and got to that age where we allow him his chosen degree of rude as some sort of social entitlement, along with his bus pass. ~ Mhairi McFarlane
Self Entitlement quotes by Mhairi McFarlane
The central question is whether Medicare and Medicaid should remain entitlement programs guaranteeing a certain amount of care, as Democrats believe, or become defined contribution programs in which federal spending is capped, as Republicans suggest. ~ Christina Romer
Self Entitlement quotes by Christina Romer
The federal government has made explicit and implicit promises to millions of people, but has put no money aside in order to keep those promises. Some of you may wonder where Bernie Madoff got the idea for his Ponzi scheme. Clearly he was studying federal entitlement policy. ~ John C. Goodman
Self Entitlement quotes by John C. Goodman
For Social Security to be financially sound, the federal government should have $100 trillion - a sum of money six-and-a-half times the size of our entire economy - in the bank and earning interest right now. But it doesn't. And while many believe that Social Security represents our greatest entitlement problem, Medicare is six times larger in terms of unfunded obligations. ~ John C. Goodman
Self Entitlement quotes by John C. Goodman
All Democrats are not entitlement people. These are the people who are going to suffer the cost of Obama health care. These are the people who are suffering because there're no jobs. ~ Carl Paladino
