    —Salvador Minuchin (20th century)

    “If I could do my life over, I would try to cleanse at least my pleasures of self-pity.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The businessman who assumes that his life is everything, and the mystic who asserts that it is nothing, fail, on this side and on that, to hit the truth.... No; truth, being alive ... was only to be found by continuous excursions into either realm, and though proportion is the final secret, to espouse it at the outset is to ensure sterility.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
