Behaviour is a mirror in which every one displays his own image.

About This Quote

The mirror reflects back to us what we are thinking or feeling. When we see a person behaving in a certain way, it is natural for us to assume that person as being the same as us. If a person has a bad day, we might assume they have a bad attitude. If they have a good day, we might assume they have a good attitude.

But, if they have a bad day and behave badly, we may still think they have a good attitude because the behaviour is mirrored back to us. The behavior of one person can reflect back to an entire group of people.
