This post is inspired by a character from TV series Hannibal. I wanted to share all the great quotes which are directly applicable to real life

ONE CAN ONLY SEE WHAT ONE OBSERVES-AND ONE OBSERVES ONLY THINGS WHICH ARE ALREADY IN THE MIND . Thomas Haris

There is a concept of Empiricism in psychology. According to it, man can only deduce thoughts or opinions out of his own personal experience, in other words the things you have already seen or heard is what causes you to relate things to that previous knowledge. Man is curious by nature, it is his desire to know more than he already does. In order to figure out the psyche of another person, one must first study their background, for it is the basis of their thinking. And thus deduces results according to what he already knows.

FATE HAS A HABIT OF NOT LETTING US CHOOSE OUR OWN ENDINGS

Man was born with a natural instinct of self-preservation, he urges to save himself and run away from death. But death is the inevitable truth that he cannot escape, he can try to run from it, if he thinks he’s getting further away from it, by five steps, ten steps, it suddenly creeps up in front of him when he least expects it to. All of mankind is fated to die. But the unfortunate part is that he does not get the choice of choosing how long he has to live or how he is to die.

HAVE A CURIOUS MIND:

If you are not curious enough for things in life then you gotta question yourself what are you really after

YOU ARE ALONE BECAUSE YOU ARE UNIQUE:

No man on this planet can possess the same finger print as his fellow beings. With difference comes uniqueness, but it is the fact the one must recognize this difference as uniqueness or else he might feel like he does not belong anywhere. It is our differences that make us special and there is nothing to be ashamed about if your views does not match those of your peers. In fact, one should take pride in this. Even if the world labels him different and try to prevent any sort of engagement with the person then it is their own loss, for the beauty lies in the eyes of the one who holds the most different perception.

It was wisely said that:

“But being unique is greater, because you're the only one. The more you like yourself, the less you are like anyone else, which makes you unique. I am a unique expression of the universal fabric of creation. As we grow as unique persons, we learn to respect the uniqueness of others”

END NOTE:

The character itself was dark in nature but i think if we can't fully embrace our darkness then we can't fully reach our true potential because it goes side by side in the long run. All of the above quotes depicts brutal realities of life and if someone truly opens himself to other person by revealing their secret side and it is not perceived the way it should have been then that can become ultimate betrayal of all time
