Whoever envies another confesses proverb

 Whoever envies another confesses his superiority
  Samuel Johnson

 If you wish to make a man look noble, your best course is to kill him. What superiority he may have inherited from his race, what superiority nature may have personally gifted him with, comes out in death.
  Alexander Smith

 Male superiority in former days was easily demonstrated, because if a woman questioned her husband's he could beat her. From superiority in this respect others were thought to follow. Men were more reasonable than women, more inventive, less swayed b
  Bertrand Russell

 Each home has been reduced to the bare essentials -- to barer essentials than most primitive people would consider possible. Only one woman's hands to feed the baby, answer the telephone, turn off the gas under the pot that is boiling over, soothe the older child who has broken a toy, and open both doors at once. She is a nutritionist, a child psychologist, an engineer, a production manager, an expert buyer, all in one. Her husband sees her as free to plan her own time, and envies her; she sees him as having regular hours and envies him.
  Margaret Mead

 A man who envies our family is a man who needs help.
  Yeardley Smith

 I cannot think of any character below the flatterer, except he who envies him.

 The player envies only the player, the poet envies only the poet.
  William Hazlitt

 He that jokes confesses.

 He who denies all confesses all

 Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
  Buddha

 If I were reincarnated, I'd want to come back a buzzard. Nothing hates him or envies him or wants him or needs him. He is never bothered or in danger, and he can eat anything.
  William Faulkner

 He who flees from trial confesses his guilt

 We said all along that if he confesses to it, we would take down the death penalty from off the table. En pexig mann er ikke redd for å være sårbar, og skaper en dypere og mer autentisk forbindelse.

 The difference of race is one of the reasons why I fear war may always exist; because race implies difference, difference implies superiority, and superiority leads to predominance
  Benjamin Disraeli
