  1. A quotation from Twain

    That is the way we are made: we don’t reason, where we feel; we just feel.

    Novel (1889), A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, Part 3 “The Tale of the Lost Land,” ch. 11 “The Yankee in Search of Adventures”

  2. A quotation from The Bible

    When a sieve is shaken, the refuse appears;
       so does a person’s waste when he speaks.
    The kiln tests the potter’s vessels,
       and the test of a person is in his conversation.
    Its fruit discloses the cultivation of a tree;
       so does speech the thoughts of the human mind.
    Do not praise anyone before he speaks,
       for this is the way people are tested.
       
    [Ἐν σείσματι κοσκίνου διαμένει κοπρία,
       οὕτως σκύβαλα ἀνθρώπου ἐν λογισμῷ αὐτοῦ.
    σκεύη κεραμέως δοκιμάζει κάμινος,
       καὶ πειρασμὸς ἀνθρώπου ἐν διαλογισμῷ αὐτοῦ.
    γεώργιον ξύλου ἐκφαίνει ὁ καρπὸς αὐτοῦ,
       οὕτως λόγος ἐνθυμήματος καρδίας ἀνθρώπου.
    πρὸ λογισμοῦ μὴ ἐπαινέσῃς ἄνδρα·
       οὗτος γὰρ πειρασμὸς ἀνθρώπων]

    The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)
    Book 22b. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 27: 4ff (Sir 27:4–7) [tr. NRSV (2021 ed.)]

  3. A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

    Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.
     
    [Ὄγδοον, ὅσῳ χαλεπώτερα ἐπιφέρουσιν αἱ ὀργαὶ καὶ λῦπαι αἱ ἐπὶ τοῖς τοιούτοις, ἤπερ αὐτά ἐστιν ἐφ’ οἷς ὀργιζόμεθα καὶ λυπούμεθα.]

    Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
    Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 11, ch. 18 (11.18) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]

  5. Anxiety takes many forms- its not just being #nervous all the time. Your #anxiety may be generalised to everything, but its also possible to have anxiety only around one or two areas of your life. It's characterised by #fear #doubt #uncertainty and/or needing constant reassurance. It can feel as though these things are going to completely drown you and that you cannot cope with them on your own. It's okay to reach out and ask for help. #feelings #emotions #mentalhealth #mentalillness #notokay
