More quotes by Abraham Maslow
I was awfully curious to find out why I didn't go insane.
Abraham Maslow
...the great lesson is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one's daily life, in one's neighbors, friends, and family, in one's backyard.
Abraham Maslow
The human being is so constructed that he pressed toward fuller and fuller being.
Abraham Maslow
The chicken came first - God would look silly sitting on an egg.
Abraham Maslow
Whereas the average individuals often have not the slightest idea of what they are, of what they want, of what their own opinions are, self-actualizing individuals have superior awareness of their own impulses, desires, opinions, and subjective reactions in general.
Abraham Maslow
If you only have a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.
Abraham Maslow
An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my vehicle and vanished.
Abraham Maslow
We crave and fear becoming truly ourselves
Abraham Maslow
We cannot study creativeness in an ultimate sense until we realize that practically all the definitions that we have been using of creativeness are essentially male or masculine definitions of male or masculine products. We've left out of consideration almost entirely the creativeness of women.
Abraham Maslow
Self-actualized people...live more in the real world of nature than in the man-made mass of concepts, abstractions, expectations, beliefs and stereotypes that most people confuse with the world.
Abraham Maslow
Self-actualizing people have a deep feeling of identification, sympathy, and affection for human beings in general. They feel kinship and connection, as if all people were members of a single family.
Abraham Maslow
A stupid man behaves stupidly, not because he wants to, or tries to, or is motivated to, but simply because he is what he is.
Abraham Maslow
Musicians must make music, artists must paint, poets must write if they are to be ultimately at peace with themselves. What human beings can be, they must be. They must be true to their own nature. This need we may call self-actualization.
Abraham Maslow
In a word, to perceive an object abstractly means not to perceive some aspects of it. It clearly implies selection of some attributes, rejection of other attributes, creation or distortion of still others. We make of it what we wish. We create it.
Abraham Maslow
What kind of guilt comes from being true to yourself but not to others?. As we have seen, being true to yourself may at times intrinsically and necessarily be in conflict with being true to others.
Abraham Maslow
I may say that B-love, in a profound but testable sense, creates the partner. It gives him a self-image, it gives him self- acceptance, a feeling of love-worthiness, all of which permit him to grow. It is a real question whether the full development of the human being is possible without it.
Abraham Maslow
Creative people are all there, totally immersed, fascinated and absorbed in the present, in the current situation, in the here-now, with the matter-in-hand.
Abraham Maslow
I have learned the novice can often see things that the expert overlooks. All that is necessary is not to be afraid of making mistakes, or of appearing naive.
Abraham Maslow
If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life.
Abraham Maslow
Religion becomes a state of mind achievable in almost any activity of life, if this activity is raised to a suitable level of perfection.
