“Ever since Freud, being alone has been considered something of a psychological failure. The point, according to Freudian theory, is to be able to love and connect. But I don't believe that at all. I think that being alone and being coupled and being in a group are all natural states in which people can thrive.” PeopleThinkingBelieveHas BeensStatesAbleNaturalGroupsTheoryDon't BelievePsychologicalThrive Author:Alix Kates Shulman
“I believe the only limitations are the ones that we accept. I know that there is, in theory, a glass ceiling. But I don't believe that it's a solid wall. I'm going through it. Nothing's stopping me.

“I don't believe in the theory that the United States is reducing its presence in the Middle East. Quite the contrary, in the Gulf, we see an increase in American military presence, as well as an increase in American investments. The argument is more accurate when one says America is focusing more attention to the Far East. But I don't believe it comes at the expense of the Middle East.” BelieveWellsStatesAmericaUnitedAttentionUnited StatesMiddleMilitaryTheoryArgumentIncreaseInvestmentDon't BelieveEastContraryExpensesMiddle EastAccurateReducingAmerican MilitaryMilitary Presence Author:Adel al-Jubeir
