Complaints can be honest, but constant complaint becomes a kind of fog. As Benjamin Franklin reminds us:
“Constant complaint is the poorest sort of pay for all the comforts we enjoy.”
The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it. ~ Lou Holtz
Those who never complain are never pitied. ~ Jane Austen
It is only imperfection that complains of what is imperfect. The more perfect we are, the more gentle and quiet we become towards the defects of others. ~ Joseph Addison
Don’t moan. Don’t complain. Think positively. ~ Katharine Hepburn
The point of complaining is not necessarily that it’s going to change things. It’s more kind of an existential act that is essential to democracy. ~ Matthew Bakkom
Don’t complain about growing old. Many, many people do not have that privilege. ~ Earl Warren
Don’t complain because you don’t have. Enjoy what you’ve got. ~ H. Stanley Judd
