I'm not critical of the people who do psychotherapy. The therapists in the trenches have to face an awful lot of the social, political, and economic failures of capitalism. They have to take care of all the rejects and failures. They are sincere and work hard with very little credit, and the HMOs and the pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies are trying to wipe them out. So certainly I am not attacking them. I am attacking the theories of psychotherapy.

By seeing differently, we do differently

I can no longer be sure whether the psyche is in me or whether I'm in the psyche.

You don't know what you're going to get into when you follow your bliss.

Without time for loss you don't have time for soul.

You may not become a celebrity. You may even experience lots of illness or divorce, or unhappiness. But I think there is still a thread of individual character that determines how you live through those things.

I don't think you can revive traditions on purpose.
