Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, never merely as a means to an end, but always at the same time as an end.

Immanuel Kant
About This Quote

I think this quote is very true about treating others the way that you want to be treated. We all have certain things that we can’t stand, but it’s not about finding those things, it’s about finding the ones that are not so bad. They are the ones that you can work with and live with.
