Perhaps no sin so easily besets us as a sense of self-satisfied superiority to others.
William Osler
Do the best you can . . . enjoy the present . . . rest satisfied with what you have.
Seneca
Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?
Bob Marley
If the crow had been satisfied to eat his prey in silence, he would have had more meat and less quarreling and envy.
Horace, Epistles
Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere you go.
Mother Teresa
I do not believe we are all created equal. Physical and emotional differences, parental guidance, varying environments, being in the right place at the right time all play a role in enhancing or limiting development. But I do believe every man and woman, if given the opportunity and encouragement to recognize their potential, regardless of background, has the freedom to choose in our world. Will an individual be a taker or a giver in life? Will he be satisfied merely to exist, or will he seek a meaningful purpose? Will he dare to dream the impossible dream?

You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, and you don't branch out, you don't try-you don't take the risk.
Rosalynn Smith Carter
Fate is not satisfied with inflicting one calamity.
Publilius Syrus
Wonder, connected with a principle of rational curiosity, is the source of all knowledge and discover, and it is a principle even of piety; but wonder which ends in wonder, and is satisfied with wonder, is the quality of an idiot
Samuel Horsley
Show me a thoroughly satisfied man, and I will show you a failure.
Thomas Edison
