Don't look at others so dismally to excuse your own failing -- by failing is meant what the quote author feels in penning it. Or keyboarding it. The signal that he or she considers 'loneliness' a failing is in a few places here. One signal is the initial defensiveness, for it is the author that calls up the sense of being labeled 'feebleminded', not anyone else. The other is in the curse the author lays on the 'other'. The curse that they fall apart in their lifes when they face loneliness. That's not so, it can be in a case or a few, but in general: no. We write to look inward. Like a mirror to ourselves is what we claim, especially in a negative way, for others. So start importing in your own persona a good outlook to others, and then you might REALLY come to enjoy your own life, including the loneliness. Surely your own lonelienss was bitter to you when you wrote this

This remains great advice.

Bunkum. You never know when the end is. Do your best in the moment. Every moment is unique, so too is the best you can do in it This quote suggest you should waste time thinking you are done and did great. You are not done. And it doesn't matter much if you did great or badly: for it is the NEXT moment, all the upcoming moments that count, and you ain't there yet.

No, none of this. What you create by this method is a liability. A debt. And the debt collectors are fierce, with patience and long memories.

Historical NB:

JRR Tolkien in the last years of World War II channeling The St. Crispin’s Day speech from 1599's hit theater piece Henry V by William Shakespeare.

Madison here speaks to his own understanding then, in the late 18th century and early 19th, of "religion". In context it means only the sectarian differences between the Abrahamic religions, mostly of Christian sects, with a shading of Jewish and Muslim influence, and even of Deism. In any case it does NOT include atheism or even agnosticism. Today, anything but atheism or humanism aka secular humanism is viewed as "religion".

who asked lmfao

Ah, the art of procrastination in its finest form!

I've only submitted one quote so far and I've gotten it three times already LMAO

worst quote i have ever encountered on this site

Ehh ?

You are the only you there is. Regarding "being an introvert": that is a condition that can change any time, by your own volition or by external events. Why shackle your "being" to any condition like that, so transient and so neutral regarding a benefit or harm. There are times to have friends, times to make friends, times to lose them, and times where one must go down the road alone. It's a great good to one's life to have good friends, and a tax and pestilence--a danger--to have bad ones. Folks change, you change. Good friends are like gold and good medicine. Bad friends are like theifs and poison. Introversion is important for self-growth, extroversion is important to develop for health physical and financial.

Update: I feel better! Went to Urgent Care yesterday and they confirmed it was the flu. Gave me some acetaminophen and ibuprofen and told me to go home and rest, and that my fever will go away in a few days. And just like that, my fever's gone today! Still have a sore throat, but it's getting better!
