A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity.
Robert A. Heinlein
A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy.
Jean Baudrillard
Anger and jealousy can no more bear to lose sight of their objects than love.
George Eliot
Back then I didn't think a woman like that, or a relationship like that, could exist with complete freedom and no jealousy or possessiveness. I thought it sounded too good to be true and I was certainly convinced it wasn't the life for me!
Sylvia Kristel
But when I would see the surrogate, my first instinct, my first reaction would be jealousy, because she was doing what I wanted to do.
Cheryl Tiegs
Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.
Mary Schmich
From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Ludovico Ariosto
I do not say anything from jealousy.
Anna Held
It is not love that is blind, but jealousy.
Lawrence Durrell
It is remarkable that jealousy of individual property in land often goes along with very exaggerated doctrines of tribal or national property in land.
William Graham Sumner
It will be found an unjust and unwise jealousy to deprive a man of his natural liberty upon the supposition he may abuse it.
George Washington
It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.
Rupert Everett
Jealousy - that jumble of secret worship and ostensible aversion.
Emile M. Cioran
Jealousy contains more of self-love than of love.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Jealousy is a dog's bark which attracts thieves.
Karl Kraus
Jealousy is all the fun you think they had.
Erica Jong
Jealousy is both reasonable and belongs to reasonable men, while envy is base and belongs to the base, for the one makes himself get good things by jealousy, while the other does not allow his neighbour to have them through envy.
Aristotle
Jealousy is bred in doubts. When those doubts change into certainties, then the passion either ceases or turns absolute madness.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire.
Solomon Ibn Gabirol
Jealousy is love bed of burning snarl.
George Meredith
