Quotations about jealousy and envy, from The Quote Garden.
Looking for inspirational jealousy quotes?
Do you have some haters in your life that you would like to gain some perspective on?
Envy is an emotion that eats up many of us.
It is unhealthy, it prevents us from moving forward, and it fixates us on what others have, instead of what we want to work for.
There is a Buddhist term, Mudita, which means sympathetic or unselfish joy.
Joy in the good fortune of others. The opposite of Mudita is envy and jealousy.
It is a gift to be able to let envy go, and it is life changing to turn the emotion around into a positive that motivates and inspires us.

25 Jealousy Quotes-In the lives that we live today, it’s easy to be envious with others and get jealous over the things other people have. Jealousy is a very dangerous emotion and it can drive people to do dangerous things. There is a thing that we call a crime of passion which is basically a heinous misconduct committed out of sheer jealousy and other extreme emotions. So, a simple jealousy over a phone model or that one boy in class could have pretty bad effects. Let’s look at some of the famous Jealousy Quotes that are said about envy and how wicked it can get.
The Jealous Are Troublesome To Others, But A Torment To Themselves – William Penn
While there are a lot of misunderstandings and issues between people that are rooted from jealousy, it is actually a much bigger war from inside a person. A jealous person might feel anger towards a person but truthfully, they are angrier with themselves for feeling that way. Sometimes, they don’t understand why they suddenly get envious over trivial things and then the inner battle starts. People who can’t control their self-hatred could start hurting others or worse, hurting themselves. So, listen to these people. It is important that you take the time to understand these people and know where they are coming from. Sometimes, all they need is a calm conversation.

To Cure Jealousy Is To See It For What It Is, A Dissatisfaction With Self – Joan Didion
Whichever angle you look at it, jealousy boils down to being discontented with what we have. We often look past the blessings that we have and focus on the things that we don’t have. And then, when we see others possess the things that we don’t have, we start to get jealous. We have a phone but it is not the latest model. That girl who sits beside you in class has the latest phone model. You get envious and you start to think about how you can flush her phone down the toilet. The only cure for jealousy is to look into ourselves and realize how dissatisfied we are. Start counting your blessings and be thankful. Once you do this, what others possess won’t matter anymore.
More Men Die Of Jealousy Than Of Cancer – Joseph P. Kennedy
The last of the Jealousy Quotes is probably the most striking. It says that there are more deaths caused by jealousy than the most famous medical cause of death that is cancer. This quote might not mean the physical death itself. People also die emotionally and this is most probably what the quote is saying. As we’ve said, jealousy can push a person to do unimaginable things that can cause either physical, mental, or emotional deaths. This is why it is important to have friends around you so that you have a support system. You should have people around you who can listen to your problems and help you calm down so your jealousy won’t eat you.
