Karl A. Menninger quotes about
love children hate
We have come to see that just as the child must learn to love wisely, so he must learn to hate expeditiously, to turn destructive tendencies away from himself toward enemies that actually threaten him rather than toward the friendly and the defenseless, the more usual victims of destructive energy.
love fall doe
One does not fall in love; one grows into love, and love grows in him.
love-you acceptance love-is
Self love is not opposed to the love of other people. You cannot really love yourself and do yourself a favor without doing other people a favor, and vice versa.
love-you wells refuse
Our lives are shaped by those who love us as well as those who refuse to love us....
love-you taken love-is
Love is a medicine for the sickness of the world; a prescription often given, too rarely taken....
love family happiness
What's done to children, they will do to society.
love happy-valentines-day helping-others
Love cures people - both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.
believe committing hard nor reader
Is it hard for the reader to believe that suicides are sometimes committed to forestall the committing of murder? There is no doubt of it. Nor is there any doubt that murder is sometimes committed to avert suicide.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
europe america optimism
It was his optimism that Freud bequeathed to America and it was the optimism of our youthfulness, our freedom from the sterner, sadder tradition of Europe which enabled us to seize his gift.
psychology understanding different
Psychoanalysis has changed American psychology from a diagnostic to a therapeutic science, not because so many patients are cured by the psychoanalytic technique, but because of the new understanding of psychiatric patients it has given us, and the new and different concept of illness and health.
illegal-things envy wish
We need criminals to identify ourselves with, to secretly envy and to stoutly punish. They do for us the forbidden, illegal things we wish to do.
wish-to-die giving hatred
TO THOSE WHO WOULD USE INTELLIGENCE IN THE BATTLE AGAINST DEATH - TO STRENGTHEN THE WILL TO LIVE AGAINST THE WISH TO DIE, AND TO REPLACE WITH LOVE THE BLIND COMPULSION TO GIVE HOSTAGES TO HATRED AS THE PRICE OF LIVING.
suicide weapons normal
Hope is a necessity for normal life and the major weapon against the suicide impulse.
