When you please others in hopes of being accepted, you lose you self-worth in the process.

Dave Pelzer

Social media websites are no longer performing an envisaged function of creating a positive communication link among friends, family and professionals. It is a veritable battleground, where insults fly from the human quiver, damaging lives, destroying self-esteem and a person's sense of self-worth.

Anthony Carmona

Sticking to a diet required me to have a permanently low self-esteem. But happily, I developed other skills beyond a fluctuating weight, eventually building up a different source of self-worth.

Arabella Weir

You're not going to get every part, so you can't base your sense of self-worth around whether or not you actually land the job.

Autumn Reeser

As a musician you're always your own worst critic and you're always digging into your songs and evaluating your own self-worth of things.

Ben Howard

I have learned to become not an M.D. but a 'C.D.' for the wounded people I meet. Yes, a 'Chosen Dad' who may not like their behavior but loves and reparents them and helps them to heal their lives and find self-worth and self-esteem and save their lives.

Bernie Siegel

I think that Mama June has the greatest self-esteem on the planet. I always say to people, 'If I had her self-worth, I would probably be ruling the world.'

Blake McIver Ewing

Once a week, I like to slip into a deep existential depression where I lose all my sense of oneness and self-worth.

Bo Burnham

I was so depressed for so many years over trying to become a working comedian that my sense of self-worth would plummet.

Bob Saget

Boxing's a bit like the Army, nine out of 10 people come out as pretty nice people. It taught me self-worth, to respect my elders and what the right thing was to do. As a result, I don't think I even got a single detention at school. It helped me to be good.

Carl Froch

We women often gauge our own self-worth by the quality of our interactions with our lovers. And often these interactions are interpreted for, described for, processed by our women friends. Relationships are the conduits through which flows our connection with each other.

Carrie Preston

'DWTS' really made me feel confident, and has given me a lot of just self-worth within myself and realizing that I don't need a man to be successful and that I could do a lot on my own, and have my own voice and have my own opinion.

Cheryl Burke

Some men feel threatened by the idea of feminism. This comes, I think, from the insecurity triggered by how boys are brought up, how their sense of self-worth is diminished if they are not 'naturally' in charge as men.

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Your net worth can fluctuate, but your self-worth should only appreciate.

Chris Gardner

When you please others in hopes of being accepted, you lose you self-worth in the process.

Dave Pelzer

Trump is somebody who sees the media as basically his main constituency. So much of his self-worth and his image and his view of what the presidency should be about is the media and how he is reflected in the media.

David Fahrenthold

If you feel like the beginning of your history is rooted in slavery, that really, I think, messes with your sense of self, your self-esteem, and your self-worth.

David Oyelowo

Let's be honest; it's rather easy to be busy. We all can think up a list of tasks that will overwhelm our schedules. Some might even think that their self-worth depends on the length of their to-do list. They flood the open spaces in their time with lists of meetings and minutia - even during times of stress and fatigue.

Dieter F. Uchtdorf

I think if you're young and you're being compared with a successful family member, it's really hard to maintain any sense of self-worth and credibility.

Duncan Jones

If a person's self-worth derives from being the only woman in the field, how much affection can she feel toward another woman who might challenge that claim to fame?

Eileen Pollack

You have no idea how fragile an actor's self-worth is.

Elia Kazan
