Erik Erikson Quotes

Play is the most natural method of self-healing that childhood affords Picture Quote #1

When we looked at the life cycle in our 40s, we looked to old people for wisdom. At 80, though, we look at other 80-year-olds to see who got wise and who not. Lots of old people don’t get wise, but you don’t get wise unless you age Picture Quote #1

The growing child must derive a vitalizing sense of reality from the awareness that his individual way of mastering experience (his ego synthesis) is a successful variant of a group identity and is in accord with its space-time and life plan Picture Quote #1

Will, therefore, is the unbroken determination to exercise free choice as well as self-restraint, in spite of the unavoidable experience of shame and doubt in infancy Picture Quote #1

You see a child play, and it is so close to seeing an artist paint, for in play a child says things without uttering a word. You can see how he solves his problems. You can also see what’s wrong. Young children, especially, have enormous creativity, and whatever’s in them rises to the surface in free play Picture Quote #1

There is in every child at every stage a new miracle of vigorous unfolding, which constitutes a new hope and a new responsibility for all Picture Quote #1

Nobody likes to be found out, not even one who has made ruthless confession a part of his profession. Any autobiographer, therefore, at least between the lines, spars with his reader and potential judge Picture Quote #1

Life doesn’t make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that, the better for us all Picture Quote #1

Every adult, whether he is a follower or a leader, a member of a mass or of an elite, was once a child. He was once small. A sense of smallness forms a substratum in his mind, ineradicably. His triumphs will be measured against this smallness; his defeats will substantiate it Picture Quote #1

The richest and fullest lives attempt to achieve an inner balance between three realms: work, love and play Picture Quote #1

Babies control and bring up their families as much as they are controlled by them; in fact ... the family brings up baby by being brought up by him Picture Quote #1

You’ve got to learn to accept the law of life, and face the fact that we disintegrate slowly Picture Quote #1

Doubt is the brother of shame Picture Quote #1

Personality, too, is destiny Picture Quote #1

Children love and want to be loved and they very much prefer the joy of accomplishment to the triumph of hateful failure. Do not mistake a child for his symptom Picture Quote #1

If there is any responsibility in the cycle of life it must be that one generation owes to the next that strength by which it can come to face ultimate concerns in its own way Picture Quote #1

The fact that human conscience remains partially infantile throughout life is the core of human tragedy Picture Quote #1

Adolescents need freedom to choose, but not so much freedom that they cannot, in fact, make a choice Picture Quote #1

Young children, especially, have enormous creativity, and whatever’s in them rises to the surface in free play Picture Quote #1

Life doesn’t make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that, the better for us all Picture Quote #1

Hope is both the earliest and the most indispensable virtue inherent in the state of being alive. If life is to be sustained hope must remain, even where confidence is wounded, trust impaired Picture Quote #1

The playing adult steps sideward into another reality; the playing child advances forward to new stages of mastery Picture Quote #1

Babies control and bring up their families as much as they are controlled by them; in fact... the family brings up baby by being brought up by him Picture Quote #1
