Quotes about self-improvement
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. (Allen James)
He who asks of life nothing but the improvement of his own nature is less liable than anyone else to miss and waste life. (Allen James)
Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is. (Allen James)
There is no use whatever trying to help people who do not help themselves. You cannot push anyone up a ladder unless he be willing to climb himself. (Allen James)
You do not need to be loved, not at the cost of yourself. The single relationship that is truly central and crucial in a life is the relationship to the self. Of all the people you will know in a lifetime, you are the only one you will never lose. (Allen James)
It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another, his education is incomplete. (Allen James)
He who stops being better stops being good. (Allen James)
The good man is the man who, no matter how morally unworthy he has been, is moving to become better. (Allen James)
People never improve unless they look to some standard or example higher or better than themselves. (Allen James)
The never-ending task of self improvement. (Allen James)
Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it. We solicitously and apologetically caress and celebrate him, because he held on his way and scorned our disapprobation. The gods loved him because men hated him. (Allen James)
Inside yourself or outside, you never have to change what you see, only the way you see it. (Allen James)
Self-help books are making life downright unsafe. Women desperate to catch a man practice all the ploys recommended by these authors. Bump into him, trip over him, knock him down, spill something on him, scald him, but meet him. (Allen James)
In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself. (Allen James)
He was always smoothing and polishing himself, and in the end he became blunt before he was sharp. (Allen James)
The way for a young man to rise is to improve himself in every way he can, never suspecting that anybody wishes to hinder him. (Allen James)
The improvement of our way of life is more important than the spreading of it. If we make it satisfactory enough, it will spread automatically. If we do not, no strength of arms can permanently oppose it. (Allen James)
By these things examine thyself. By whose rules am I acting; in whose name; in whose strength; in whose glory? What faith, humility, self-denial, and love of God and to man have there been in all my actions? (Allen James)
The best thing you can do is get good at being you. (Allen James)
Whoever will cultivate their own mind will find full employment. Every virtue does not only require great care in the planting, but as much daily solicitude in cherishing as exotic fruits and flowers; the vices and passions (which I am afraid are the natural product of the soil) demand perpetual weeding. Add to this the search after knowledge... and the longest life is too short. (Allen James)
When you are through improving yourself, you are out of the game. You learn until your last breath. (Allen James)
Live to live and you will learn to live. (Allen James)
Commit to CANI! -- Constant And Never-ending Improvement (Allen James)
What you become directly influences what you get. (Allen James)
The problem with self-improvement is knowing when to quit. (Allen James)

Worst Quote
So for directors, actors, producers, writers-whoever encompasses the creative elements of a film-you have a hit, everyone's happy, and you're the hottest thing in the world. But if the movie doesn't open, then those realities do come into play. (Andy Garcia) [actors/thing/movie]
