It may not be a truth that others can accept, but I cannot live any other way. How would it be to live a lie every minute of your life? I don’t think I could do it Picture Quote #1

One of the less attractive aspects of human nature is our tendency to hate the people we haven’t treated very well; it’s much easier than accepting guilt.

Humans are very, very good at shifting blame and avoiding guilt Picture Quote #1

Love brings up our unresolved feelings. One day we are feeling loved, and the next day we are suddenly afraid to trust love. The painful memories of being rejected begin to surface when we are faced with trusting and accepting our partner’s love Picture Quote #1

Grief was like a terrible burden, but at least you could lay it down by the side of the road and walk away from it.

Nothing was ever so bad once you had accepted it Picture Quote #1

We deny the parts of ourselves that we deem unacceptable rather than accepting the fact that we’re all less than perfect Picture Quote #1

Accepting the key premise that the learner is the primary customer of schooling means others follow naturally... The core business of schooling is learning, and the quality of learning experienced by all learners should be the standard against which performance is measured Picture Quote #1

There is only one world; the world pressing against you at this minute. There is only one minute in which you are alive; this minute here and now. The only way to live is by accepting each minute as an unrepeatable miracle Picture Quote #1

To choose a hardship for ourselves is our only defense against that hardship. This is what is meant by accepting suffering.

A justification for suicide Picture Quote #1

Drop jealousy and envy, for they make you ugly. Be loving, be accepting, and most of all... be happy just the way you are Picture Quote #1

These were people so hungry for love that they were accepting substitutes. There were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. But it never works. You can’t substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship. Money is no substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. I can tell you as I’m sitting here dying, when you most need it, neither money nor power will give you the feeling you’re looking for, no matter how much of them you have Picture Quote #1

Science has so accustomed us to devising and accepting theories to account for the facts we observe, however fantastic, that our minds must begin their manufacture before we are aware of it Picture Quote #1
