Famous quotes containing the words creation and/or myths:

    Like witches they flew along rows
    Keeping creation at ease;
    With a tendril for needle
    They sewed up the air with a stem;
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    ... the first reason for psychology’s failure to understand what people are and how they act, is that clinicians and psychiatrists, who are generally the theoreticians on these matters, have essentially made up myths without any evidence to support them; the second reason for psychology’s failure is that personality theory has looked for inner traits when it should have been looking for social context.
    Naomi Weisstein (b. 1939)
