“Every man is in a state of conflict, owing to his attempt to reconcile himself and his relationship with life to his conception of harmony.

Works of art are attempts to fight out this conflict in the imaginative world.”

Guilt is a major roadblock to building a new life for yourself and to being an effective parent.”
—Stephanie Marston (20th century)
