"No man is hurt but by himself...." - Quote by Diogenes

“To Xeniades, who had purchased Diogenes at the slave market, he said, "Come, see that you obey orders."”

“He lit a lamp in broad daylight and said, as he went about, "I am looking for a human."”

“The sun too penetrates into privies, but is not polluted by them.”

“You've achieved cheerfulness the day you realize that no matter what's happening around you, being anything other than cheerful will not make it better.”

“Optimist: Person who travels on nothing from nowhere to happiness.”

“Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.”

“Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me.”

“Torment yourself as little as possible, then you'll torment me less.”

“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.”
