More quotes by M. Scott Peck
Integrity is never painless.
M. Scott Peck
We must be willing to fail and to appreciate the truth that often Life is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery to be lived.
M. Scott Peck
The will to grow is, in essence, the same phenomenon as love. Genuinely loving people are, by definition, growing people.
M. Scott Peck
Falling in love is not an act of will. It is not a conscious choice. No matter how open to or eager for it we may be, the experience may still elude us. Contrarily, the experience may capture us at times when we are definitely not seeking it, when it is inconvenient and undesirable.
M. Scott Peck
Mental health is an ongoing process of dedication to reality at all costs
M. Scott Peck
If you wish to discern either the presence or absence of integrity, you need to ask only one question. What is missing? Has anything been left out?
M. Scott Peck
Real love is a permanently self-enlarging experience.
M. Scott Peck
Life is a series of problems. Do we want to moan about them or solve them?
M. Scott Peck
The whole course of human history may depend on a change of heart in one solitary and even humble individual - for it is in the solitary mind and soul of the individual that the battle between good and evil is waged and ultimately won or lost.
M. Scott Peck
Whenever we seek to avoid the responsibility for our own behavior, we do so by attempting to give that responsibility to some other individual or organization or entity. But this means we then give away our power to that entity.
M. Scott Peck
Genuine love is volitional rather than emotional.
M. Scott Peck
With total discipline we can solve all problems.
M. Scott Peck
If we know exactly where we're going, exactly how to get there, and exactly what we'll see along the way, we won't learn anything.
M. Scott Peck
Problems do not go away. They must be worked through or else they remain, forever a barrier to the growth and development of the spirit.
M. Scott Peck
What does a life of total dedication to truth mean? It means, first of all, a life of continuous and never-ending stringent self-examination. We know the world only through our relationship to it. Therefore, to know the world, we must not only examine it but we must simultaneously examine the examiner.
M. Scott Peck
Nirvana or lasting enlightenment or true spiritual growth can be achieved only through persistent exercise of real love.
M. Scott Peck
Self examination is the key to insight, which is the key to wisdom
M. Scott Peck
Problems are the cutting edge that distinguishes between success and failure. Problems ... create our courage and wisdom.
M. Scott Peck
When we avoid the legitimate suffering that results from dealing with problems, we also avoid the growth that problems demand from us.
M. Scott Peck
I am dubious as to how far we can move toward global community-which is the only way to achieve international peace-until we learn the basic principles of community in our own individual lives and personal spheres of influence.
M. Scott Peck
