intertribalfrom the website gurlpages. Don't laugh. This is my quiz result for "what temperament are you", although I already knew all this. However, I think their list of famous melancholics is quite funny.
According to Galen's ancient theory of temperaments, people with melancholic temperaments are often perfectionists, and are analytically oriented. They are said to be sensitive and loving, but may also be hard to please because of their high standards. Because of their sensitivity, they often prefer a smaller group of friends, and don't feel as comfortable in large groups.

Do you find yourself paying more attention to the details than the big picture? Pursuit of perfection in a world where not everything is perfect may lead to disappointment...but armed with an unfailing sense of curiosity and purpose, those with melancholic temperaments are bound to find solutions to even the most frustrating of problems.
