| 448b420 | Why think about death? We can't do anything about it!" I tried to help her understand that, though the fact of death destroys us, the idea of death can save us. In other words, our awareness of death can throw a different perspective on life and incite us to rearrange our priorities." | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| 7bd0c49 | Any limiting categorization is not only erroneous but offensive, and stands in opposition to the basic human foundations of the therapeutic relationship. In my opinion, the less we think (during the process of psychotherapy) in terms of diagnostic labels, the better.

| e6ede45 | Pass, then, through this little space of time in harmony with nature and end thy journey in contentment, just as an olive falls off when it is ripe, blessing nature who produced it, and thanking the tree on which it grew. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 61299ab | The second, "alternatives exclude," is an important key to understanding why decision is difficult. 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 | ||
| c82acb1 | One of the great paradoxes of life is that self-awareness breeds anxiety. Fusion eradicates anxiety in a radical fashion--by eliminating self-awareness. The person who has fallen in love, and entered a blissful state of merger, is not self-reflective because the questioning lonely I (and the attendant anxiety of isolation) dissolve into the we. Thus one sheds anxiety but loses oneself. This is precisely why therapists do not like to treat a.. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| bbd9bba | I had helped him understand that he had lost sight of his personal boundaries. It is natural, I had told him, that one should respond adversely to an attack on one's central core--after all, in that situation one's very survival is at stake. But I had pointed out that Carlos had stretched his personal boundaries to encompass his work and, consequently, he responded to a mild criticism of any aspect of his work as though it were a mortal att.. | Irvin D.

| c90840f | Love is not just a passion of spark between two people, there is an infinite difference between falling in love and standing in love. Rather, love is a way of being, a "giving to", not a "falling for", a mode of relating at large, not an act limited to a single person." | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

| 4aa6146 | A great many of our patients have conflicts in the realm of intimacy, and obtain help in therapy sheerly through experiencing an intimate relationship with the therapist. Some fear intimacy because they believe there is something basically unacceptable about them, something repugnant and unforgivable, Given this, the act of revealing oneself fully to another and still being accepted may be the major vehicle of therapeutic help. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||

You suggested, Doctor Breuer, that I should simply interject any comments that occur to me.

| 83fac8f | Existentialist psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom identified what he calls humans' ultimate concerns: death, isolation (loneliness), freedom, and meaning.118 These concerns reflect our deep fundamental needs. We search to understand the meaning of life, but no question provokes more debate. We feel desperate to experience gratification, so much so that we often rob ourselves of it by overindulging | Annie Grace | ||
| 291901d | How? It's obvious. You told me yourself, Lou is like your Bertha--she's an automaton, playing her role, the same role, with me, with you, with one man after the other. The particular man is incidental. She seduced both of us in the same way, with the same female deviousness, the same guile, the same gestures, the same promises!" "And yet this automaton controls you. She dominates your mind: you worry about her opinion, you pine for her touc.. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 15d43b5 | They are part of the slave mentality artfully engineered by priestly propaganda. Dissect your motives deeper! You will find that no one has ever done anything wholly for others. All actions are self-directed, all service is self-serving, all love self-loving. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 48be0f2 | Myrna. Listen hard to what I'm going to say. You're collecting and hoarding. You're accumulating information from me, but you're not giving anything back! I believe you're trying to relate to me differently now but I'm not experiencing it as engagement. I don't feel yet that you're relating to me as a person--it's more like you regard me as a data bank from which you make withdrawals. | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
| 643ca23 | But those things aren't you. They are just things about you, not the real, the core you. Look at the center of you. What do you want to change there? | Irvin D. Yalom | ||
