Quote by Ioana Stăniloiu

“Cred că se face confuzie între termenul experiență și traumă. Experiența te face un om mai bogat, trauma nu. O persoană, fie că e bărbat sau femeie, dacă nu are dorința firească și naturală de a explora, de a cunoaște, de a experimenta, e bolnavă. Dacă nu e bolnavă, mai rămâne posibilitatea că trăiește într-un mediu nepotrivit, iar expunerea la mediul nesănătos o poate afecta. Nu poți sa te închizi în casă, să te sigilezi de lume și să pretinzi că ești sănătos pentru a te feri de ce se întâmplă în afara casei.”

“We all want our partners to reach in and heal the young wounded parts of us with their love. And they always, to some degree, fail us. Because they are human and therefore imperfect. Because, on the day you most need them, they have a toothache and can't be bothered. Because in that perfect moment when you throb with desire, they ate and drank too much and just want to go to sleep. The tough news here is that the only person who can with absolute consistency be there for our inner children is us. And that's okay. That's enough. Once we learn how to do it.”

“So, here's the first tip for working on your partner's core negative image of you: the more you refute it, the more you'll reinforce it. But the more you admit to the kernel of truth within your partner's exaggeration, the greater the odds that the exaggeration will relax. Try it. Don't defend yourself - yield. Yielding can work as a core negative image buster.”

“Take a break, throw some water on your face, take cleansing breaths with long exhalations, go for a walk. But don't try to grapple with relational issues from your Adaptive Child. Get yourself reseated in your Wise Adult before attempting repair. Ask yourself which part of you is talking right now, and what that part's real agenda is. If your agenda in that moment is to be right, to gain control, to vent, retaliate, or withdraw - then stop, call a formal time-out if need be, and get yourself recentered. The only agenda that will work is the one about finding a solution. Only then will you have any luck using your newly cultivated sills.”

“...the day you turn to the person sleeping next to you and realize that you have been had, that this is not the person you fell in love with, and that this is all some dreadful mistake—that, Framo claims, is the first day of your real marriage. Welcome to humanity. No gods or goddesses here. And what a great thing that turns out to be. While we may long to be married to perfection, it turns out it is precisely the collision of your particular imperfections with mine—and how we as a couple handle that collision—that is the guts, the actual stuff of intimacy. Harmony, then disharmony, then repair is the essential rhythm of all close relationships. It's like walking. You have your balance, then you stumble. You catch yourself and rebalance.”

“We tell ourselves a story about what just happened, and our feelings most often follow the story we've constructed. Belinda is being nice. Belinda is being sarcastic. Living beyond individualism requires each of us to take responsibility for our own constructions. "What I make up" is a phrase I ask my clients to use. What I make up is that you're being sarcastic. What I make up is that under your anger, there's hurt. We are not clairvoyant, and neither are we the authoritative voice of objective reality. Keep it subjective; keep it humble. "This was my experience, right or wrong. This is how I recollect it. This is the story I tell myself about it." Here's the trick. For the most part, you cannot violate someone when you speak from the I.”

“Prior learning sends related information down from the top layers of our six-neuron-deep column to shape our perception of what we are seeing or hearing or touching or smelling or tasting. There is no "immaculate perception"; perception is virtually always a blend of what we are sensing now and what we've learned previously.”

“Aby podążyć za wytyczonymi przez Poppera ścieżkami naukowej praktyki badawczej, trzeba na samym jej początku dokonać aktu wiary w postaci wyboru paradygmatu. Wiary – ponieważ żadne argumenty empiryczne nie wesprą, ani nie sprzeciwiają się naszej decyzji o przyjęciu bądź odrzuceniu założenia, że rzeczywistość rządzi się zasadami przyczyny i skutku, że jest poznawalna, a nawet że istnieje. Zwolennicy przekonań odmiennych od naszych mają tyle samo dobrych powodów, by przyjmować swoje założenia, a odrzucać te, które przez nas wybraliśmy. Wszystkie te powody trzeba uznać za pozaracjonalne i pozaempiryczne, ponieważ nie potrafimy naukowo badać prawdziwości twierdzeń z tak ogólnego poziomu. Praktyka naukowa zaczyna się o krok później, gdy na fundamentach przyjętych założeń ontologicznych i epistemologicznych budujemy konkretne modele teoretyczne interesujących nas zjawisk, aby następnie poddać je testom empirycznym i w ich wyniku przyjąć, odrzucić lub modyfikować. Mając "ironiczną okoliczność" w pamięci, nie będziemy zapewne skłonni do angażowania się w gorące spory na temat wyższości jakiego konkretnego paradygmatu, np. ilościowego, nad innym, np. jakościowym – lub odwrotnie. Nie ma tak wielkiego znaczenia, który zestaw założeń i kryteriów poprawności metodologicznej przyjmiemy za swój. Tym, co odróżnia praktykę naukową od pozanaukowych form budowania wiedzy, jest bezdyskusyjne trzymanie się przyjętego (w ramach wybranego paradygmatu) rygoru metodologicznego i pokora wobec empirii. Warunki te spełnia zarówno podejście jakościowe, jak i ilościowe, a także kilka innych paradygmatów, w których rozróżnienie to nie jest tak istotne. Możemy wybierać z wielkiej różnorodności metod, systemów teoretycznych i paradygmatów, jakie mamy dziś do dyspozycji.”
