“Love is the bridge that leads from the I sense to the We, and there is a paradox about personal love. Love of another individual opens a new relation between the personality and the world. The lover responds in a new way to nature and may even write poetry. Love is affirmation; it motivates the yes responses and the sense of wider communication. Love casts out fear, and in the security of this togetherness we find contentment, courage. We no longer fear the age-old haunting questions: "Who am I?" "Why am I?" "Where am I going?" - and having cast out fear, we can be honest and charitable.” WorldWayWritingMayAgeIndividualLove IsHonestSecurityCommunicationPersonalityLoversRelationResponseCastsBeing HonestBridgesContentmentParadoxNew WaysAffirmationHauntingTogethernessLove PoetryCharitablePersonal Love Author:Carson McCullers

“a little of the ready reliance on the expert comes from the desire to waive responsibillity, comes from the endless evasion of life instead of an honest facing of it. The expert is to many what the priest is, someone who knows absolutely and can tell us what to do. The king, the priest, the expert, have one after the other had our allegiance, but so far as we put any of them in the place of ourselves, we have not a sound society and neither individual nor general progress.” KnowsLittlesDesireIndividualSoundProgressHonestReadyKingsEndlessExpertsPriestsRelianceAllegianceEvasion Author:Mary Parker Follett
