"The better we feel about ourselves, the fewer times we have to knock somebody else down to feel tall." What Odetta Holmes means by her quote is whenever we feel positive, we feel uplifted and proud. The more positive we feel, the less we want to knock someone else off of their high and make them feel down. People usually knock others off of their high just for the sake of feeling taller than them. If we already feel high and positive, there's no reason to make someone else feel bad and negative.
