About This Quote
Often, we expect others to bow down and grovel at our feet. We expect them to fall to their knees and kiss our feet and promise us the world. We expect them to do what we say and show us the utmost respect. Sometimes, we even think that they must be stupid or completely incompetent if they don’t automatically give in to everything we say or do. It is so easy sometimes to become so frustrated with people.
