PSYCHOLOGY READERS WISDOM William James Our errors are surely not such awfully solemn things. In a world where we are so certain to incur them in spite of all our caution, a certain lightness of heart seems healthier than this excessive nervousness on their behalf. Seneca Our care should not be to have lived long as to have lived enough. Miyamoto Musashi Calmness is attained through meditation and belief in your own skills. Albert Einstein Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. Carl Jung Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. Carlos Castaneda What is the sense of knowing things that are useless? They will not prepare us for our unavoidable encounter with the unknown. Thaddeus Golas What happens is not as important as how you react to what happens. Sigmund Freud Every normal person, in fact, is only normal on the average. His ego approximates to that of the psychotic in some part or other and to a greater or lesser extent. Plato Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each. Salvator Rosa Be silent, unless what you have to say is better than silence.
