| ee86838 | Famously, Gloria Steinem once advised women that they should strive to become like the men they had always wanted to marry. What I've only recently realized is that I not only have to become my own husband, but I need to be my own father, too. | life women | Elizabeth Gilbert | |
| b88820b | U svijetu nereda, nesreca i prijevare katkad je moguce vjerovati samo ljepoti. Samo je umjetnicka izvrsnost nepotkupljiva. Uzitku nije moguce spustiti cijenu. A obrok je katkad jedina stvarna valuta. | Elizabeth Gilbert | ||
| 3bd6f59 | What some people wanted was sometimes too hard to get, and the stress of trying was sometimes too hard to deal with... Maybe doing well in life was just too hard for some people. | Walter Dean Myers | ||
| 745d89d | People want to look at you and see your whole future laid out the way they know it, and I was saying that didn't happen. People aren't born with I'M GREAT! flashing on their foreheads. | Walter Dean Myers | ||
| e6e553a | No rose without a thorn. But many a thorn without a rose. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 78ca332 | sex as the vital antagonist to death--isn't the orgasm the primal spark of life? I know of many instances in which sexual feelings arise in order to neutralize fears of death. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 24fec17 | Asa-zisa ,,psihologie pentru mase" bate intr-una moneda pe ,,asumarea responsabilitatii", dar nu sunt decat vorbe goale: este extraordinar de greu, ba chiar terifiant, sa accepti ideea ca tu si numai tu esti acela care iti construiesti viata, felul in care o traiesti. Ca urmare, problema in psihoterapie consta intotdeauna in a sti cum sa treci de la o apreciere in plan intelectual, care se dovedeste ineficace, a unui adevar despre tine insu.. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| c258cf0 | It's often pretty hard to speak to others about my cancer. I have a number of pet peeves. Many folks are overly solicitous. They can't do enough for you. There's that Kaiser nurse who keeps asking "Isn't there someone who can drive you here?" And some people are too prying. I think they are voyeuristic and attempt to satisfy their morbid curiosity about having cancer. I don't like that and have sometimes wanted to say, "Go get your own damn.. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 94c96bc | Winnicott also cites the hostile lullabies mothers sing to babies, who fortunately do not understand the words. For example: Rockabye, Baby, on the treetop, When the wind blows the cradle will rock, When the bough breaks the cradle will fall, And down will come baby, cradle and all. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 0a5c65d | Ubijeden sam da su, u tim zanosima prvih susreta, Dan i zena pogresno tumacili ono sto u vidjeli jedno u drugom. Svako od njih je vidjeo odraz sopstvenog preklinjanja, ranjen pogled i pogresno ga protumacio kao zelju i ispunjenost. Oboje su bill ptici sa slomljenim krilima, koji su trazili da lete privijeni uz drugu pticu sa slomljenim krilima. Ljudi koje se osjecaju isprazno nikada se ne izlijece stapanjem sa drugom nepotpunom osobom. Napr.. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| c11285c | Sekcirajte dublje svoje motive. Naci cete da niko nikada nije ucinio nista uzviseno za drugoga. Svi postupci su usmjereni ka sebi, sve usluge sebi, sva ljubav je ljubav prema sebi. Izgledate iznenadeni ovim komentarom? Mozda imate na umu one koje volite. Zaronite dublje i shvaticete da ne volite njih: ono sto volite su prijatni osjecaji koje takva ljubav stvara u vama! | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| a48f428 | Religion has everything on its side: revelation, prophecies, government protection, the highest dignity and eminence...and more than this, the invaluable prerogative of being allowed to imprint its doctrines on the mind at a tender age of childhood, whereby they become almost innate ideas. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| cbe5148 | Could we foresee it, there are times when children might seem like innocent prisoners condemned not to death but to life and as yet all too unconscious of what their sentence means. Nevertheless every man desires to reach old age...a state of life of which it may be said "it is bad today, and every day it will get worse, until the worst of all happens." | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 453f24b | Beginning therapists must learn that there are times to sit in silence, sometimes in silent communion, sometimes simply while waiting for patients' thoughts to appear in a form that they may be expressed. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 2c203b3 | Client-therapist disagreement about the goals and tasks of therapy may impair the therapeutic alliance.+ This issue is not restricted to group therapy. Client-therapist discrepancies on therapeutic factors also occur in individual psychotherapy. A large study of psychoanalytically oriented therapy found that clients attributed their successful therapy to relationship factors, whereas their therapists gave precedence to technical skills and .. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 7fc4113 | Like you, I have often wondered why fears reign at night. After twenty years of such wondering, I now believe that fears are not born of darkness; rather, fears are like the stars--always there, but obscured by the glare of daylight. "And" | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| aa7850b | Perhaps the real therapy occurred at the deathbed scene, when they moved into honesty with the revelation that they were fellow travelers, both simply human, all too human. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 4539fe8 | Decision invariably involves renunciation: for every yes there must be a no, each decision eliminating or killing other options (the root of the word decide means "slay," as in homicide or suicide)." | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| b8cff30 | Some said living with cancer had made them wiser, more self-realized, while others had reordered their priorities in life, grown stronger, learned to say no to activities they no longer valued and yes to things that really mattered--such as loving their family and friends, observing the beauty about them, savoring the changing seasons. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 43b7bc1 | I hate it that she has so insinuated herself into the interstices of my mind that I can never root her out. And most of all, I hate that at the end of my life I feel compelled to ask, "How'd I do, Mama?"." | Irvin Yalom سپیده حبیب | ||
| 6ab8ad6 | The sentiment that one "should have done something more" reflects, it seems to me, an underlying wish to control the uncontrollable. After all, if one is guilty about not having done something that one should have done, then it follows that there is something that could have been done - a comforting thought that decoys us from our pathetic helplessness in the face of death." | grief loss psychology | Irvin D. Yalom | |
| 06097eb | Just as the bones, flesh, intestines and blood vessels are enclosed in a skin that makes the sight of man endurable, so the agitations and passions of the soul are enveloped in vanity; it is the skin of the soul. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| 92ef74e | Arthur ne aminteste adesea (si lui insusi) ca emotia are puterea de a ascunde si de a falsifica cunoasterea; ca lumea intreaga capata un aspect senin atunci cand avem motive sa ne bucuram si unul intunecat si posomorat atunci cand ne copleseste parerea de rau | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| e04e828 | Should we not create--should we not become--before we reproduce? Our responsibility to life is to create the higher, not to reproduce the lower. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| 59692dd | Why does the same book elicit such a range of responses? There must be something in the particular reader that leaps out to embrace the book. His life, his psychology, his image of himself. There must be something lurking deep in the mind--or, as this Freud says, the unconscious--that causes a particular reader to fall in love with a particular writer. | psychology responses | Irvin D.

| f3d99c1 | But you, like me, have good eyes. You looked too far into life. You saw that it was futile to reach wrong goals and futile to set new wrong goals. Multiplications of zero are always zero!" Breuer" | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| ee58bc1 | I believe "technique" is facilitative when it emanates from the therapist's unique encounter with the patient. [E]very course of therapy consists of small and large spontaneously generated responses or techniques that are impossible to program in advance." | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 0984729 | He is civilized, polite, a man of manners. He has tamed his wild nature, turned his wolf into a spaniel. And he calls this moderation. Its real name is mediocrity! | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| c004213 | After watching what this purchase had cost Irwin and Linda, Amy and I chose a different path. Love, we figured, may be the best thing that ever happens between two people. And that the best thing is of no worldly worth struck us a beautiful paradox--and an endangered one. We therefore began fighting to defend the worthlessness of lovers everywhere in the only way we knew how: by vowing to remain as inseparable from each other, and as utterl.. | David James Duncan | ||

| c590907 | It's incredible to me how blithely even intelligent people sometimes toss around terms like "transcendence" and "crucifixion." The words move us on paper. They feel noble upon the tongue. But when they cease to be sounds and begin to caress the flesh and bones, when they leave the page and get physical, there is little that even the best of us woudn't do to escape them." | David James Duncan |
