A woman who is willing to be herself and pursue her own potential runs not so much the risk of loneliness as the challenge of exposure to more interesting men and people in general.

About This Quote

This quote is from the book, “When Harry Met Sally.” In order to find a true companion, a person must be willing to be themselves and not get in the way of their own potential. In many cases, people get so caught up in their lifetime of conditioning that they forget to live life on their own terms. Instead, they must learn the value of being who they are and living life on their own terms. They must give up all thoughts of what others think and focus only on who they are and what they want out of life. Only when they do that can they find true companionship.
