What you are to be, you are now becoming.

When a person realizes he has been deeply heard, his eyes moisten. I think in some real sense he is weeping for joy. It is as though he were saying, "Thank God, somebody heard me. Someone knows what it's like to be me".

No other person's ideas, and none of my own ideas, are as authoritative as my experience.

Man's inability to communicate is a result of his failure to listen effectively.

It is the client who knows what hurts, what directions to go, what problems are crucial, what experiences have been deeply buried.

Life is about Being & Becoming.

Am I living in a way which is deeply satisfying to me, and which truly expresses me?

It is astonishing how elements that seem insoluble become soluble when someone listens.

Life, at its best, is a flowing, changing process in which nothing is fixed.

We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are. Then change seems to come about almost unnoticed.

The only person who cannot be helped is that person who blames others.

The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination.

People only seriously consider change when they feel accepted for exactly who they are.

A person cannot teach another person directly; a person can only facilitate another's learning

As no one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves.

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now.

Maybe New York shouldn't survive. Maybe it should go through a cycle of destruction.

Screw State! State's always on the side of the blacks. The hell with them!
