About This Quote
Complaining is a very in-depth, intimate part of human nature. No matter how much we deny it, we are all subject to the strong urge to complain. Unfortunately, our desire for complaint is often quite destructive and destructive to our relationships with others and ourselves. Complaining is like a form of self-abuse. Complaining does not help the person who complains; it only makes him or her feel better about themselves and makes them feel better about the world around them.
