More quotes by M. Scott Peck
The quickest way to change your attitude toward pain is to accept the fact that everything that happens to us has been designed for our spiritual growth.
M. Scott Peck
Going into the unknown is invariably frightening, but we learn what is significantly new only through adventures.
M. Scott Peck
An unconscious, gentle process whereby people who want to be loving attempt to be so by telling little white lies, by withholding some of the truth about themselves and their feelings in order to avoid conflict. Pseudocommunity is conflict-avoiding true community is conflict-resolving.
M. Scott Peck
The path of spiritual growth is a path of lifelong learning.
M. Scott Peck
Listening well is an exercise of attention and by necessity hard work. It is because they do not realize this or because they are not willing to do the work that most people do not listen well.
M. Scott Peck
But I already saw no great difference between the psyche and spirituality. To amass knowledge without becoming wise is not my idea of progress in therapy.
M. Scott Peck
A life of total dedication to the truth also means a life of willingness to be personally challenged.
M. Scott Peck
Love is too large, too deep ever to be truly understood or measured or limited within the framework of words.
M. Scott Peck
When we cling, often forever, to our old patterns of thinking and behaving, we fall to negotiate any crisis, to truly grow up, and to experience the joyful sense of rebirth that accompanies the successful transition into greater maturity.
M. Scott Peck
Share our similarities, celebrate our differences.
M. Scott Peck
Problems call forth our courage and our wisdom indeed, they create our courage and wisdom.
M. Scott Peck
It is not easy for us to change. But it is possible and it is our glory as human beings
M. Scott Peck
If your goal is to avoid pain and escape suffering, I would not advise you to seek higher levels of consciousness or spiritual evolution.
M. Scott Peck
Abandon the urge to simplify everything, to look for formulas and easy answers, and to begin to think multidimensionally, to glory in the mystery and paradoxes of life, not to be dismayed by the multitude of causes and consequences that are inherent in each experience -- to appreciate the fact that life is complex.
M. Scott Peck
With total discipline we can solve all problems.
M. Scott Peck
Idealists are people who believe in the potential of human nature for transformation. . . . The most essential attribute of human nature is its mutability and freedom from instinct . . . it is always within our power to change our nature. So it is actually the idealists who are on the mark and the realists who are off base.
M. Scott Peck
Genuine love is volitional rather than emotional.
M. Scott Peck
Discipline is wisdom and vice versa.
M. Scott Peck
The life of wisdom must be a life of contemplation combined with action.
M. Scott Peck
Integrity is never painless.
M. Scott Peck
