“All children are born to grow, to develop, to live, to love, and to articulate their needs and feelings for their self-protection.”
― Alice Miller

“The automatic, natural contact with his own emotions and needs gives an individual strength and self-esteem. He may experience his feelings—sadness, despair, or the need for help—without fear of making the mother insecure. He can allow himself to be afraid when he is threatened, angry when his wishes are not fulfilled. He knows not only what he does not want but also what he wants and is able to express his wants, irrespective of whether he will be loved or hated for it.”
― Alice Miller, The Drama of the Gifted Child: The Search for the True Self

“We are poor indeed if we are only sane.”
― D.W. Winnicott

“The adventure of awakening is among the most universal of human dramas.”
