How to handle Jealousy:
Jealousy has
Frightening eyes.
Jealousy has
Grinding teeth.
Jealousy has
A cunning face.
Jealousy can live
Without a mind,
Without a heart,
Without a soul,
Even without God.
Human jealousy
And divine Ecstasy
Are eternal strangers.
Jealousy
Is an aggressive boxer,
A repulsive dancer,
A hopeless singer
And a useless storyteller.
Jealousy,
Before you entered
Into my life,
I was the world's
Richest prince.
Now that you are in me
And I am for you,
I have become
The poorest street-beggar.
Jealousy,
You are my constant
Nightmare-mind.
You are my constant
Love-absence-heart.
Shortest is the distance
From jealousy to hell.
Jealousy,
You are your own
Ultimate
Self-destructive-indulgence.
Excerpt from My Jealousy Is My Madness-Burden by Sri Chinmoy.
A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity.
Robert A. Heinlein
A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy.
Jean Baudrillard
Anger and jealousy can no more bear to lose sight of their objects than love.
George Eliot
Back then I didn't think a woman like that, or a relationship like that, could exist with complete freedom and no jealousy or possessiveness. I thought it sounded too good to be true and I was certainly convinced it wasn't the life for me!
Sylvia Kristel
But when I would see the surrogate, my first instinct, my first reaction would be jealousy, because she was doing what I wanted to do.
Cheryl Tiegs
Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.
Mary Schmich
From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Ludovico Ariosto
I do not say anything from jealousy.
Anna Held
It is not love that is blind, but jealousy.
Lawrence Durrell
It is remarkable that jealousy of individual property in land often goes along with very exaggerated doctrines of tribal or national property in land.
William Graham Sumner
