32 Enlightening Jealousy Quotes That Are Full Of Wisdom

Jealousy

Jealousy is a strong emotion and if you allow it into your heart, it can overpower you. Some people can be extremely jealous to the point of being ready to do anything to get what someone else has.

They can go to great lengths like hurting others or even killing just out of jealousy. They cannot stand seeing someone else have something. It burns their whole being. Someone else's happiness makes them unhappy.

Jealous people don't like seeing other people have something they don't have. They can't take it seeing someone else being happy, peaceful, or content. They find joy in other people's suffering. They want to be the only ones with something.

They can even go out of their way to get something that someone wants even when they don't want it. They just want this other person to miss it. They love seeing others frustrated because they didn't get something.

Jealous people are all about themselves. They want everything to go to them from compliments to things to people. They are the kind of people who will try hard to break your relationship just because they don't like seeing you both together.

They may not even want your spouse for themselves. They just want you to break up for their own satisfaction. They will also be selfish and mean with things or information. They will not give you something that may benefit you or tell you something that may be useful to you.

If you have a jealous friend or spouse, they will try to keep you only to themselves. They will not want you talking or hanging out with other people who could ‘steal' you from them. They will be overprotective and want you to spend all your time with them only.

Here are jealousy quotes to help you see through jealous people if you have them in your life.

I suppose that at last like the average man: I’ve known too many women and instead of thinking, I wonder who’s fucking her now? I think she’s giving some other poor son of a bitch much trouble right now.

Her violence frightened me. She always claimed that I was the jealous one, and I was often jealous, but when I saw things working against me I simply became disgusted and withdrew. Lydia was different. She reacted. She was the Head Cheerleader at the Game of Violence.

it was like any other relationship, there was jealousy on both sides, there were split-ups and reconciliations. there were also fragmented moments of great peace and beauty. I often tried to get away from her and she tied to get away from me but it was difficult: Cupid, in his strange way, was really there.

Hatori Sohma: Any idea where Akito and Kureno are off to? Shigure Sohma: Taking a little walk. Hatori Sohma: To see Honda you think? Shigure Sohma: I suppose that is a possibility. When it comes to Tohru, Akito has clearly got a superiority complex. The girl is a threat – why else keep us locked away, stuck in one-on-one meetings?

All these years and that vow is still right here [gestures to his heart]. If I have to lie or manipulate a few people along the way, then so be it. It’s a small price to pay, even if someone gets hurt… I do feel bad about it sometimes though. Mostly, it’s when I’m looking at Tohru. She’s just good, through and through. She helps for those two, but her innocence may be a bit much for me. Sometimes she forces me to realize that mine might be the filthiest soul of all. Granted, I am as dirty as they come. It’s funny but, sometimes, I find myself feeling jealous of you. And I wonder if maybe I’m the one most cursed of us.

I can't stand any other girl getting close to him, whether it's Tohru Honda or the girl who MIGHT join student council or the new fan club president. How can I choose another girl to take my place? I hate them all. All of them. They're enemies, every single one. But, really, the one I hate the most - is myself.

Motoko Minagawa: We - the four of us - we really like Yuki. We love him. Can't you understand how much it hurts us when we see Tohru with him all the time? It's like... it's like she thinks she can have him all to herself - but she can't. Prince Yuki belongs to all of us. Megumi Hanajima: You say that, but if he truly belonged to you, would you be here fighting to hold onto him? You say that you love him, but if you did would you really want to take his friends from him? Would you try to force your will upon him to make yourselves happy without any regard for HIS feelings?

Wadda they need me for? They've got Yuki, don't they? I doubt anyone's gonna miss ME. They're all too busy looking to HIM. That's the way it always is, ever since we were kids. He's always been the smart one, and he knows how to get stuff done, and he's good with people, all that. And everybody around him's always telling him how talented he is and stuff. He doesn't even have to try and they all look up to him. Anyway, it's just like with martial arts. I've been training WAY longer than he has, but he's still better than me.

Kyo Sohma: Of course, I'll beat YOU, too! Yuki Sohma: Don't you ever get tired of saying that? Kyo Sohma: Beating you is my vocation! It's my goal in life! Yuki Sohma: It's so unfair that I keep having to take abuse just because you can't meet your goals. Kyo Sohma: THAT CONDESCENDING ATTITUDE OF YOURS REALLY PISSES ME OFF! Yuki Sohma: And that revolting thought process of yours pisses me off.

[Mrs. Pentstemmon] had said Sophie was a witch. Oddly enough, Sophie accepted this without any trouble at all. That explained the popularity of certain hats, she thought. It explained Jane Farrier’s Count Whatsit. It possibly explained the jealousy of the Witch of the Waste. It was as if Sophie had always known this. But she had thought it was not proper to have a magic gift because she was the eldest of three. Lettie had been far more sensible about such things.

"And you're too nice," he added, above the lap-lap of the water and the patter of sand on the water-lily leaves. "I was relying on you being too jealous to let that demon near the place."

I’ve always envied people who sleep easily. Their brains must be cleaner, the floorboards of the skull well swept, all the little monsters closed up in a steamer trunk at the foot of the bed.

I don’t give anyone a reason to hate me, they create their own drama out of pure jealousy. Keep ears opened, mouth closed.
