Quote by Samantha Lourie

“Much of life hangs in what I call the ‘other side’ of living. These are the areas of our lives we are preoccupied with at night and, yet, we’re never taught enough about these dominant aspects of human existence when growing up. Partly because of this lack of healthy exposure, we feel ill-equipped, embarrassed and quite helpless when we personally stumble upon these difficult, challenging grey areas. We often feel swallowed whole by them.”

“Online privacy is not a luxury reserved for the tech-savvy; it's a universal right that shapes the contours of a free and democratic digital society. It's about establishing spaces in the virtual realm where our thoughts, expressions, and interactions are shielded from unwanted scrutiny. As we navigate the interconnected web, the preservation of online privacy becomes a non-negotiable reality, defining the core values of our evolving digital landscape.”

“Like all the other defense mechanisms, delusion is invisible to us, making it a serious problem: we don't know we are deluded. We live in an unreal world based on our delusions, but we see that unreal world as reality. Because we can't afford to hear the facts about our lives as they really are, we often get very angry with people who try to point out any fallacies in our delusions. This position leaves us very vulnerable, since both reality itself and anyone with a strong sense of reality tend to threaten the view we have of our world. People in delusion tend to isolate themselves from those who might reveal the truth about their lives.”
