More quotes by Abraham Maslow

Image
When people appear to be something other than good and decent, it is only because they are reacting to stress, pain, or the deprivation of basic human needs such as security, love, and self-esteem.
Abraham Maslow
Image
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
Image
Life could be vastly improved if we could count our blessings as self-actualizing people can and do, and if we could retain their constant sense of good fortune and gratitude for it.
Abraham Maslow
Image
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
Image
We have got to abandon the sense of amazement in the face of creativity, as if it were a miracle if anybody created anything.
Abraham Maslow
Image
One's only rival is one's own potentialities. One's only failure is failing to live up to one's own possibilities. In this sense, every man can be a king, and must therefore be treated like a king.
Abraham Maslow
Image
The only happy people I know are the ones who are working well at something they consider important.
Abraham Maslow
Image
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
Image
The good or healthy society would then be defined as one that permitted people's highest purposes to emerge by satisfying all their basic needs.
Abraham Maslow
Image
Man is a perpetually wanting animal.
Abraham Maslow
Image
We may define therapy as a search for value.
Abraham Maslow
Image
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
Image
Boys will be boys as long as there are no girls in the picture.
Abraham Maslow
Image
If you treat your children at home in the same way you treat your animals in the lab, your wife will scratch your eyes out. My wife ferociously warned me against experimenting on her babies.
Abraham Maslow
Image
Laugh at what you hold sacred, and still hold it sacred.
Abraham Maslow
Image
My feeling is that the concept of creativeness and the concept of the healthy, self actualizing, fully human person seem to be coming closer and closer together, and may perhaps turn out to be the same thing
Abraham Maslow
Image
The human being needs a framework of values, a philosophy of life, a religion or religion-surrogate to live by and understand by, in about the same sense that he needs sunlight, calcium or love.
Abraham Maslow
Image
No psychological health is possible unless this essential care of the person is fundamentally accepted, loved and respected by others and by himself.
Abraham Maslow
Image
We fear our highest possibilities. We are generally afraid to become that which we can glimpse in our most perfect moments, under conditions of great courage. We enjoy and even thrill to godlike possibilities we see in ourselves in such peak moments. And yet we simultaneously shiver with weakness, awe, and fear before these very same possibilities.
Abraham Maslow

What we call 'normal' in psychology is really a psychopathology of the average, so undramatic and so widely spread that we don't even notice it ordinarily.
