Henry James Zitate

Junge Männer dieser Klasse tun niemals etwas für sich, was sie von anderen Menschen für sich erledigen können, und es ist die Betäubung, die Hingabe und der Aberglaube der anderen, die sie am Laufen halten. Diese anderen in neunundneunzig von hundert Fällen sind Frauen.

I think we're all sensitive; everyone has a certain way about themselves that people don't like to let their emotions out too often. I think people tend to suppress them and hold them in, so I think there's a bit of that in me.

A lot of people have said that I'm super-snarky and mean. But honesty is the only way to get people to change. It's very important to be constructively critical - give people alternatives and you're giving them a new way to see themselves.
