What I am is good enough if I would only be it openly Picture Quote #1

So, as you can readily see from what I have said thus far, a creative, active, sensitive, accurate, empathic, nonjudgmental listening is for me terribly important in a relationship. It is important for me to provide it; it has been extremely important, especially at certain times in my life, to receive it. I feel that I have grown within myself when I have provided it; I am very sure that I have grown and been released and enhanced when I have received this kind of listening Picture Quote #1

What you are to be, you are now becoming Picture Quote #1

Life, at its best, is a flowing, changing process in which nothing is fixed Picture Quote #1

Neurotic behavior is quite predictable. Healthy behavior is unpredictable Picture Quote #1

It’s an awful risky thing to live Picture Quote #1

Man’s inability to communicate is a result of his failure to listen effectively Picture Quote #1

If the time comes when our culture tires of the endless homicidal feuds, despairs of the use of force and war as a means of bringing peace, becomes discontent with the half-lives that its members are living - only then will our culture seriously look for alternatives Picture Quote #1

Both the young and the old are almost completely useless in our modern society, and are made keenly aware of that uselessness. They have no place. They are private, isolated - and hopeless Picture Quote #1

As no one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves Picture Quote #1

The paradigm of Western culture is that the essence of persons is dangerous; thus, they must be taught, guided, and controlled by those with superior authority Picture Quote #1

It is a direction not a destination Picture Quote #1

What is most personal is most universal Picture Quote #1

The basic idea behind teaching is to teach people what they need to know Picture Quote #1

We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are. Then change seems to come about almost unnoticed Picture Quote #1

Empathy is a special way of coming to know another and ourself, a kind of attuning and understanding. When empathy is extended, it satisfies our needs and wish for intimacy, it rescues us from our feelings of aloneness Picture Quote #1

Openness to all attitudes no matter how extreme or unrealistic they may seem Picture Quote #1

It is astonishing how elements that seem insoluble become soluble when someone listens Picture Quote #1

Learning of all kinds goes on best, lasts best, and tends to lead itself on more when it grows out of a real focus of interest in the learner Picture Quote #1

Each person is an island unto himself, in a very real sense; and he can only build bridges to other islands if he is first of all willing to be himself and permitted to be himself Picture Quote #1

The way of being with another person which is termed empathic... means temporarily living in their life, moving abut in it delicately without making judgment... to be with another in this way means that for the time being you lay aside the views and values you hold for yourself in order to enter the other’s world without prejudice... a complex, demanding, strong yet subtle and gentle way of being Picture Quote #1

I am increasingly an architect of self. I am free to will and choose. I can, through accepting my individuality... become more of my uniqueness, more of my potentiality Picture Quote #1
