{"quotes":[{"text":"Yes; he had done it. She was in the carriage, and felt that he had placed her there, that his will and his hands had done it, that she owed it to his perception of her fatigue, and his resolution to give her rest. She was very much affected by the view of his disposition towards her, which all these things made apparent. This little circumstance seemed the completion of all that had gone before. She understood him. He could not forgive her, but he could not be unfeeling. Though condemning her for the past, and considering it with high and unjust resentment, though perfectly careless of her, and though becoming attached to another, still he could not see her suffer, without the desire of giving her relief. It was a remainder of former sentiment; it was an impulse of pure, though unacknowledged friendship; it was a proof of his own warm and amiable heart, which she could not contemplate without emotions so compounded of pleasure and pain, that she knew not which prevailed.","author":"Jane Austen","tags":["austen","care","jane","joy","love","resentment"],"id":3636,"author_id":"Jane+Austen"},{"text":"...You want things to remain the same, which they never can, and so you’re wounded by your own feelings \u0026 resentful others don’t seem to care...","author":"John Geddes","tags":["apathy","feelings","muse","resentment","wounded"],"id":5896,"author_id":"John+Geddes"},{"text":"My relationship with him was defined by these complex emotions, this mixture of gratitude and resentment.","author":"Otsuichi","tags":["affection","complex","complicated","complicated-relationship","complicated-relationships","emotions","gratitude","humanity","relationships","resentment","robots"],"id":9264,"author_id":"Otsuichi"},{"text":"Interestingly, do you know who is the most difficult person to love? It is easy to love friends and not too difficult to love those less fortunate than ourselves. It certainly isn't easy loving enemies, but sometimes the person most difficult to love is the one who is MORE fortunate than we are. The one who receives the promotion we deserved. The one who gets the recognition we desired, the honor we sought or the affections of the lover we had hoped to win. It is easy to resent those who seem to be more fortunate – those who “get all the breaks.","author":"Steve Goodier","tags":["development","emotions","envy","harmony","hatred","jealousy","love","love-of-neighbor","loving","loving-others","resentment"],"id":9552,"author_id":"Steve+Goodier"},{"text":"Resentment is the little fire that can transform and destroy the world by becoming a wildfire.","author":"Debasish Mridha","tags":["debasish","debasish-mridha","destroy","fire","mrihda","philosophy","resentment","transfor","wildfire","world"],"id":10793,"author_id":"Debasish+Mridha"},{"text":"For a moment we glared at each other, stubborn as cats on the stable wall, full of mutual resentment and something darker, the old sense between sisters that there is only really room in the world for one girl.

To suffer at the sight or even the thought of others' enjoyment of life makes one a committed enemy of human happiness. Such people end up being practically a curse upon the human race. They vandalize life, exerting themselves not in the pursuit of gain or pleasure, but to hinder others' enjoyment.","author":"Robert Sheaffer","tags":["envy","resentment","roman-catholic-church"],"id":20744,"author_id":"Robert+Sheaffer"},{"text":"She was so wicked.
