“One of the general considerations about new buildings is that people tend to say that anything new is a monstrosity. And then after a while they either accept them or they go on thinking that they are monstrosities. Reactions vary. This depends to some extent on the quality of the building.” PeopleThinkingQualityAcceptingBuildingGoes OnDependsReactionsConsiderationVaryMonstrosity Author:Joseph Rykwert

“Imagine that someone said or did something cruel to you, but that you did not react in any way whatsoever – you did not become upset, resentful or even ruffled. You simply observed that this person was saying or doing something cruel, as though you were calmly observing the scene in a movie. You simply would not be stressed by what would appear to others to be a highly stressful encounter. Stress and cruelty affect us as profoundly as they do only because we react to them resentfully.” WayPersonsSaidImagineSceneStressCrueltyUpsetEncountersImagine ThatObservingStressedStressfulResentful Author:Roy Masters
“You must learn to look at people who are angry with you straight in the eye without getting angry back. When children see their parents treating them this way, they then recognize the parents' authority. It speaks louder than words. Their new respect for the parents is as good for them as it is for the parents. It never works to demand respect of children. It must be given willingly as a result of strength of good character in the parents, which is manifested by their non-reaction to stress in the children.” PeopleWayLooksChildrenCharacterEyeSpeakGivenParentResultsDemandAuthorityStressAngryReactionsBack WhenGood Character Author:Roy Masters
