"Show me a man or a woman alone and I'll show you a saint. Give me two and they'll fall in love. Give me three and they'll invent the charming thing we call 'society'. Give me four and they'll build a pyramid. Give me five and they'll make one an outcast. Give me six and they'll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they'll reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home."

"Your water is in the bottles, and my water is in the bucket, but we are brothers? I am collecting garbage, and you are in the bed, but we are sisters? My fingers are broken, and your hands are so soft, but we are family? Your God is like an angel, and my God is like an evil, but we are equal? My stomach is empty, and your stomach is so big, but we are humans?"

"An artist cannot fail; it is a success to be one."

Success

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"If we divine a discrepancy between a man's words and his character, the whole impression of him becomes broken and painful; he revolts the imagination by his lack of unity, and even the good in him is hardly accepted."

Imagination

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"One should never criticize his own work except in a fresh and hopeful mood. The self-criticism of a tired mind is suicide."

Work

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"A talent somewhat above mediocrity, shrewd and not too sensitive, is more likely to rise in the world than genius."

Talent

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"So far as discipline is concerned, freedom means not its absence but the use of higher and more rational forms as contrasted with those that are lower or less rational."

Discipline

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"We are ashamed to seem evasive in the presence of a straightforward man, cowardly in the presence of a brave one, gross in the eyes of a refined one, and so on. We always imagine, and in imagining share, the judgments of the other mind."

Impression

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"To cease to admire is a proof of deterioration."

Etiquette

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"The mind is not a hermit's cell, but a place of hospitality and intercourse."

Mind

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"Institutions - government, churches, industries, and the like - have properly no other function than to contribute to human freedom; and in so far as they fail, on the whole, to perform this function, they are wrong and need reconstruction."

Government

Quote_1.png
Charles Horton Cooley
"There is nothing less to our credit than our neglect of the foreigner and his children, unless it be the arrogance most of us betray when we set out to "Americanize" him."
