Да разберем, че сегашното ни поведение има причини, коренящи се в минали преживявания е нисша форма на insight. По-висшата форма на insight е да разберем, че тези причини са собствените ни тълкувания и убеждения. (От Рационално-емотивния подход на консултиране на Елис.)
"Don't you know what it really means to love somebody - to love without hate, without jealousy, without anger, without wanting to interfere with what he is doing or thinking, without condemning, without comparing - don't you know what it means?" Jiddu Krishnamurti, on Love (added 24.04.2007)

"Using no way as a way, using no limitations as a limitation.”

“I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not to be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies. To be certain, every day there can be a revelation or a new discovery. I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.” Bruce Lee (added 05.03.2007)
"We are, you could say, whirlwinds, who wish they were rocks. We cling to things in the hopes that they will provide us with a certain "weight". We try to turn our loved ones into things by demanding that they not change, or we try to change them into perfect partners, not realizing that a statue, though, it may live forever, has no love to give us." Buddha (added 27.02.2007)
"Life is not measured by the number of breathes we take, but by the number of moments that take our breath away." (14.02.2007)
"If you want to build a ship, you should not tell your men to cut trees and to prepare tools, rather grow their desire to sail the endless sea." (Saint-Exupery)
One cannot love by words alone. I had tried that. Giving and receiving words of love, however witty or Shakespearean, is a ruse propounded by poets with inept dicks. One loves by act. Language can clarify and explain and amuse, but it cannot change your being. Experience can. (The Surrender, an erotic memoir by Toni Bentley)
When everything has left you, you are alone. When you have left everything behind, there is solitude. (Schiller)
Straigtforwardness is not always good. It simplifies things and narrows choice, diminishing the protean rainbow of unsaid desires. (12.01.2007)
The longest route, begins with one step only. (Chinese proverb)
