i envy you for who you are, but admire you because your who i want to become

After a while you have to envy these people because they have community.

To be rich in admiration and free from envy, to rejoice greatly in the good of others, to love with such generosity of heart that your love is still a dear possession in absence or unkindness - these are the gifts which money cannot buy

For fools admire, but me of sense approve.

Admiration is a very short-lived passion, that immediately decays upon growing familiar with its object.

We live by our imagination, our admirations, and our sentiments.
