Be calm when your wife yells at you, calmer when she chastens you, but be terrified when she ignores you.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Ignore those who resent you. Avoid those who begrudge you. Excuse those who envy you. Pity those who hate you.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
If birds sing without worrying about who is listening to them, and monkeys dance without worrying about who is watching them, and hyenas laugh without worrying about who is mocking them, then you too must do what you do best without worrying about who is ridiculing you.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Reward those who help you. Forget those who use you. Ignore those who judge you. Forgive those who wrong you.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
The louder the dogs bark the less a lion feels threatened.

If an eagle is teaching you to fly, ignore the advice of turkeys.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Avoid and ignore the idiots who try to bring you down in life, they are not worth your time.
