When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet deep down in his heart no man much respects himself.
A man cannot be comfortable without his approval.
If everybody was satisfied with himself there would be no heroes.
From his cradle to his grave man never does a single thing which has any first and foremost objective save one-- to secure peace of mind, spiritual comfort, for himself.
It may be called the Master Passion, the hunger for self-approval.
What do you call Love, Hate, Charity, Revenge, Humanity, Magnanimity, Forgiveness? Different results of the one Master Impulse: the necessity of securing one's self- approval.
<談自我認可與對自我缺乏認可>
別人不尊重我們,我們會大為震怒,然而在心靈深處,沒有人是十分尊重自己的。
人要是無法認可自我,絕不會感到安樂。
要是人人都對自己感到滿意,就不會有英雄。
人自出生到死亡,凡做一件事,首要的目標只有一個~ 確保自己心靈平靜、精神安樂!
對自我認可的渴望,或可名之為主要的激情。
你如何稱呼愛、恨、慈悲、報復、人性、慷慨、寬宏大量? 它們雖是不同的結果,卻出自同一主要的衝動:人必須確保自我認可的心理。
