With total discipline we can solve all problems.

Image
Self examination is the key to insight, which is the key to wisdom
M. Scott Peck
Image
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
Image
There is no virtue inherent in un-constructive suffering.
M. Scott Peck
Image
Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it. Once we truly know that life is difficult-once we truly understand and accept it-then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.

Good discipline requires time. When we have no time to give our children, or no time that we are willing to give, we don't even observe them closely enough to become aware of when their need for our disciplinary assistance is expressed subtley.

Image
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.

Servant-leadership is more than a concept, it is a fact. Any great leader, by which I also mean an ethical leader of any group, will see herself or himself as a servant of that group and will act accordingly.

Image
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
Image
Love is too large, too deep ever to be truly understood or measured or limited within the framework of words.
M. Scott Peck
Image
Going into the unknown is invariably frightening, but we learn what is significantly new only through adventures.
M. Scott Peck
Image
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
Image
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.

We cannot solve life's problems except by solving them.
M. Scott Peck
Image
Not only do self-love and love of others go hand in hand but ultimately they are indistinguishable.
M. Scott Peck
Image
Doubt is often the beginning of wisdom.
M. Scott Peck
Image
The will to grow is, in essence, the same phenomenon as love. Genuinely loving people are, by definition, growing people.
M. Scott Peck
Image
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.

Love always requires courage and involves risk.
M. Scott Peck
Image
The principal form that the work of love takes is attention. When we love another person we give him or her our attention we attend to that person's growth.
