“Jealousy is the greatest of all evils, and the one which arouses the least pity in the person who causes it”
| ||
|
“Jealousy is always born with love, but does not always die with it”
| ||
|
“Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy -- in fact, they're almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other. Both at once can produce unbearable turmoil...”

|
“Jealousy lives upon doubts. It becomes madness or ceases entirely as soon as we pass from doubt to certainty.”
| ||
|
“Jealousy is indeed a poor medium to secure love, but it is a secure medium to destroy one's self-respect. For jealous people, like dope-fiends, stoop to the lowest level and in the end inspire only disgust and loathing.”
| ||
|
“Emotional occasions, especially violent ones, are extremely potent in precipitating mental rearrangements. The sudden and explosive ways in which love, jealousy, guilt, fear, remorse, or anger can seize upon one are known to everybody. . . . And emotions that come in this explosive way seldom leave things as they found them.”

“Love that is fed by jealousy dies hard”

|
“There is never jealousy where there is not strong regard”

Jealousy is no more than feeling alone against smiling enemies. ~Elizabeth Bowen

I've spent most of my life walking under that hovering cloud, jealousy, whose acid raindrops blurred my vision and burned holes in my heart. ~Astrid Alauda

Calamities are of two kinds: misfortune to ourselves, and good fortune to others. ~Ambrose Bierce

Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point - that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative - self-value. If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved. You will always think it's a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them. ~Jennifer James

Jealousy in romance is like salt in food. A little can enhance the savor, but too much can spoil the pleasure and, under certain circumstances, can be life-threatening. ~Maya Angelou
| ||
|
As iron is eaten by rust, so are the envious consumed by envy. ~Antisthenes
| ||
|
Never love unless you can Bear with all the faults of man: Men will sometimes jealous be, Though but little cause they see. ~Thomas Campion, "Never Love"
| ||
|
The jealous bring down the curse they fear upon their own heads. ~Dorothy Dix
| ||
|
Envy assails the noblest: the winds howl around the highest peaks. ~Ovid
| ||
|
Jealousy... is a mental cancer. ~B.C. Forbes
| ||
|
A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity

Jealousy had a taste, all right. A bitter and tongue-stinging flavor, like a peach pit.
| ||
|
You want to be them; you are trying to be them. But if they are them and you are not you, then you now have to figure out who the heck you are! So isn't it just better to be you and not have to think?

Jealousy is like fire If you get hotter it becomes more If you cool down It fades away
