“Focusing on the good isn’t just about overcoming our inner grump to see the glass half full. It’s about opening our minds to the ideas and opportunities that will help us be more productive, effective, and successful at work and in life.”

“Focusing on the need to have an answer to a problem increases that need by attracting more problems that justify it. If we think that the problems are different, in the need to understand them all, they will multiply among themselves. But these problems can all be eliminated with a meditation on the purpose of our existence.”

“Focusing on your dreams may force you to quit some things, but if you persist in doing the right thing, you will succeed. No matter how hard the journey may be, do not give in. Embrace the dawning of a new season, one filled with possibilities and fresh beginnings. Take action—push beyond the ordinary and strive for results that are outstanding.”

“Focusing-Oriented Art Therapy is a major contribution to art therapy literature and practice. Laury Rappaport introduces a contemplative method and philosophy grounded in the body's felt-sense of experience and its innate and largely unrecognized wisdom. This intellectually provocative, yet thoroughly practical text, establishes Rappaport as an emergent leader in the art therapy world and author of a book that every student and art therapist must read in order to appreciate the depth and breadth of our discipline.”

“Fog everywhere. Fog up the river where it flows among green airs and meadows; fog down the river, where it rolls defiled among the tiers of shipping, and the waterside pollutions of a great (and dirty) city....
