“I have never tried to be a good person, or to appear to be a good person. What I do and what I have done is merely a side effect of my desire to become me. I have only wanted to be me; if people think I'm good, then so be it. If people think I'm bad, then so be it. But if anything, my greatest struggle is to not come across as so good. I always find myself asking, "Why do I keep on giving off this immense impression of goodness?" Can I ask the world, am I not simply allowed to be me; without needing to be classified as either good or bad? Being known as good has its own prison just as much as being bad has its jail bars. I am so tired of the need to classify people. I am me.” Inspirational QuotesWisdom QuotesIndividualityBe YourselfGood And BadBeing MeGood GirlBad GirlInspirational Women S QuotesBe A Good PersonGoodness And BadnessBe A Bad PersonBecoming Me Author:C.

“If a religion asks one to kill another just because he or she follows not this ism, nor agrees with it; then, it's a hell-hole, worse than a prison. Run away, and far from it.

“Empathy is the new measurement of everything. It doesn't matter what religion you have, what God you profess to believe in; it doesn't matter how rich you are or how poor you are, what church you go to or what church you don't go to; the only measure of character is empathy. Do you have empathy? You are a person of valuable character. Do you not have empathy for your fellow man? None of your rules and opinions, dogma and preferences, are going to save your soul. So I say it's empathy. Empathy is the new universal measurement of a man.” Wisdom QuotesEmpathyGood And BadGoodness And BadnessWhat Is GoodEmpathy Is The New GoodWhat Is BadThe Measure Of A ManThe Measure Of A SoulThe New Measure Of A Man Author:C.

“Good and bad are illusions. What exists is either the presence of empathy or the lack of it. I think this should become the new, clear definition of how we see people. No more "good" and no more "bad". Those terms are highly subjective.” TruthWisdom QuotesEmpathyGood And BadIllusionsGoodness And Badness Author:C. JoyBell C.
