Cynicism is an unpleasant way of saying the truth.

The cure for cynicism is simply to engage honestly.

Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the furthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness: a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say 'no.' But saying 'yes' begins things. Saying 'yes' is how things grow.

One can never take the cynicism one comes across in life too seriously.

Cynicism is full of naive disappointments.

Cynicism means the conduit to the soul has a great kink in it, like a garden hose in which nothing flows in either direction.

My whole life has been about confronting cynicism.

I have no cynicism at all.

Don't give in to cynicism. It is a toxic spiritual state.
