About this Quote

This quote by Henri Frederic Amiel talks to the idea that our own discontentment with ourselves can result in us being more vital of others. When we are not content with our own lives, we can become envious of the successes of others and be more likely to evaluate them harshly. This can cause sensations of resentment and bitterness, which can be damaging to our relationships with others. It is essential to remember that our own distress should not be gotten on those around us. Rather, we ought to concentrate on finding methods to enhance our own lives and be more content with ourselves. This will help us to be more understanding and compassionate towards others, and ultimately lead to much healthier relationships.
