All these feelings need to be felt. We need to stomp and storm; to sob and cry; to perspire and tremble.

There are plenty of quacks in the field. Fewer than you'd expect, though still plenty (in alternative medicine).

Growing up means leaving home and becoming a self supporting adult. I think this the hardest task any human being hast to face.

Science has so far been unable to tell us how self-aware dogs are, much less whether they have anything like our conscious thoughts. This is not surprising, since neither scientists nor philosophers can agree about what the consciousness of humans consists of, let alone that of animals.

I know from my own clinical work that when people are beaten and hurt, they numb out so that they cant feel anymore.

Evil is a source of moral intelligence in the sense that we need to learn from our shadow, from our dark side, in order to be good.

I define a good person as somebody who is fully conscious of their own limitations. They know their strengths, but they also know their shadow - they know their weaknesses. In other words, they understand that there is no good without bad. Good and evil are really one, but we have broken them up in our consciousness. We polarize them.
