Human Development
John Waskom postulated that stages of human development followed the Fibonacci sequence, indicating that the unfolding psychology of human life would ideally be a "living proof" of the Golden Mean. This theory was developed and published by Norman Rose in two articles. The first article laid out the general theory: Design and Development of Wholeness: Waskom's Paradigm. The second article laid out the applications and implications of the theory to the topic of moral development: Moral Development: The Experiential Perspective.

“The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy.”
—Steven Weinberg (b. 1933)
“They [women] can use their abilities to support each other, even as they develop more effective and appropriate ways of dealing with power.... Women do not need to diminish other women ... [they] need the power to advance their own development, but they do not “need” the power to limit the development of others.”
—Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
