Naturalness is the easiest thing in the world to acquire, if you will forget yourself-forget about the impression you are trying to make.

The person who seeks all their applause from outside has their happiness in another's keeping .

Do not trust to the cheering, for those persons would shout as much if you and I were going to be hanged.

People who want the most approval get the least and people who need approval the least get the most.

It embarrasses me to think of all those years I was buying silk suits and alligator shoes that were hurting my feet; cars that I just parked, and the dust would just build up on them.

He who trims himself to suit everyone will soon whittle himself away.

The applause of a single human being is of great consequence.

Reproof on her lips, but a smile in her eyes.

My advice to you concerning applause is this: enjoy it but never quite believe it.

There just isn't any pleasing some people. The trick is to stop trying.

I have no methods; all I do is accept people as they are.

At the heart of personality is the need to feel a sense of being lovable without having to qualify for that acceptance.

Those whose approval you seek most give you the least.
