The worst thing about jealousy is how low it makes you reach.

Ignorance is jealousy's twin sister.

There is a sort of jealousy which needs very little fire: it is hardly a passion, but a blight bred in the cloudy, damp despondency of uneasy egoism.

Envy expresses itself through condemnation. The louder the condemnation the greater the envy.

the only thing above average is the cow-to-human ratio.

Comparison may be a natural thing everybody does, but people in leadership and in helping ministries need to avoid it at all costs because it feeds either insecurity or pride, not humility and trust in God.

When we compare ourselves with others, we quickly become consumed with pride or envy, and our passion for Christ quickly fades.

Comparison is the fastest way to take all the fun out of life.

You are a dog in the manger, Cathy, and desire no one to be loved but yourself!

Discord or jealousy inhibits the ability of the Holy Ghost to teach us and inhibits our ability to receive light and truth. And the feelings of disappointment that invariably follow are the seeds of greater discord and faultfinding among those who expected a learning experience that did not come.

Jealousy and stupidity really do most of the harm that is done in the world.

And as we are - the world is. That is, if we are greedy, envious, competitive, our society will be competitive, envious, greedy, which brings misery and war. The State is what we are.
