• El hombre que se miente a sí mismo puede ofenderse más fácilmente que nadie. Sabes que a veces es muy agradable ofenderse, ¿verdad? Un hombre puede saber que nadie lo ha insultado, pero que él mismo se ha inventado el insulto, ha mentido y exagerado para hacerlo pintoresco, se ha enredado en una palabra y ha hecho una montaña de un grano de arena; él mismo lo sabe, y sin embargo será el primero en ofenderse, y se deleitará en su resentimiento hasta sentir gran placer en ello.

• There is no true and constant gentleness without humility. While we are so fond of ourselves, we are easily offended with others.

  François Fenelon

• The most depressing thing about blogging is watching so-called 'citizen journalists' turn in to little more than easily offended partisan hacks. Any remark that is slightly less than completely and totally scripted and can give the slightest opportunity to offend some delicate soul somewhere is used to set off a series of partisan screeches and cries of outrage that would make the Church Lady jealous.

• Los genios son hombres horribles, intolerantes, que se ofenden con facilidad, insomnes y acomplejados, que esperan que sus esposas sean ángeles sin más ocupación en la vida que acariciar y adorar a sus maridos. Incluso en el mejor de los casos, no es cómodo vivir con ellos; y un marido perfecto es aquel con el que es perfectamente cómodo vivir.

• Love is all around you like the air and is the very breath of your being. But you cannot know it, feel its unfeeling touch, until you pause in your busy-ness, are still and poised and empty of your wanting and desiring. When at rest the air is easily offended and will flee even from the fanning of a leaf, as love flees from the first thought. But when the air or love moves of its own accord it is a hurricane that drives all before it.
