People who have spent all day learning how to sell themselves and to manipulate others are in no position to form lasting friendships or intimate relationships...

Their need for meaning is just as intense as their need for economic security."

Few doctors will admit this, certainly not young ones, but subconsciously, in entering the profession, we must believe that ministering to others will heal our woundedness. And it can. but it can also deepen the wound.”
“So many people's school experience contains at least one instance of being looked down upon because they didn't care for one or more of the sacred mutant outcroppings of High Modernism, and they concluded from this that Literature is all about impenetrable stuff that they don't like.
