Examples of self pity in a Sentence
Self-pity is easily the most destructive of the non-pharmaceutical narcotics; it is addictive, gives momentary pleasure and separates the victim from reality.
Never feel self-pity, the most destructive emotion there is. How awful to be caught up in the terrible squirrel cage of self.
It's been said that we achieve only if we expect something and have desire to achieve it, but if we start over expecting and are not happy to what have been achieved, then instead of building a positive approach to our success we tend to fall back and instead of writing our success story, we write the story of our own catastrophe. Then finally we trap ourselves in circle of self pity.
Honesty rare as a man without self-pity, kinders as large and plain as a prairie wind.
Self-pity gets you nowhere. One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world -- making the most of one's best.
