And disavowal pulls the underpinnings away from a relationship just as surely as other more flamboyant types of betrayal Picture Quote #1

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond 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

The philosophy of praxis does not aim at the peaceful resolution of existing contradictions in history and society, but is the very theory of these contradictions. It is not the instrument of government of the dominant groups in order to gain the consent and exercise hegemony over the subaltern classes.
