Stable Keeper

Famous quotes containing the words stable and/or keeper:

“Man is not merely the sum of his masks. Behind the shifting face of personality is a hard nugget of self, a genetic gift.... The self is malleable but elastic, snapping back to its original shape like a rubber band. Mental illness is no myth, as some have claimed. It is a disturbance in our sense of possession of a stable inner self that survives its personae.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

“There is always a chance that he who sets himself up as his brother’s keeper will end up by being his jailkeeper.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
