“People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying, “Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.” I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.”
—Carl R. Rogers (via murderbornofvengeance)
“Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings that puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within.”
—Sigmund Freud (via velsier)
“The Irish border is a symptom of an intense psychological division that has been generations in the making. Needless to say, its summary removal will not lead to a united Ireland. An artificial, territorial “unity” cannot be a substitute or a stimulus for a psychological unity which, if it existed, would render everything else moot.”
—Lee E. Dutter (Perceptions of Group Identity and Recent Political Behaviour in Northern Ireland)
