I’d rather listen to what you think of yourself, than what the whole world has to say about you.

About This Quote

There are a couple of great quotes that can be found in this one. The first one is “I’d rather listen to what you think of yourself, than what the whole world has to say about you.” This is a great saying for anyone who is insecure about themselves. Since the whole world doesn’t really know who you are, being able to trust yourself can help you feel better about yourself. The second line says “I’d rather hear your opinion of me than everyone else’s.” This is another great saying for any insecure person because it isn’t you that others are criticizing when they talk about you, it is your opinion of yourself that they are criticizing. When people criticize you, they aren’t actually talking about you; they are talking about their opinions of you.
