Despair is the price one pays for self-awareness. Look deeply into life, and you’ll always find despair (Irvin D Yalom Quotes)

The pain is there; when you close one door on it, it knocks to come in somewhere else (Irvin D Yalom Quotes)
Psychiatry is a strange field because, unlike any other field of medicine, you never really finish. Your greatest instrument is you, yourself, and the work of self-understanding is endless. I’m still learning (Irvin D Yalom Quotes)

Mature love is loving, not being loved (Irvin D Yalom Quotes)
Every person must choose how much truth he can stand (Irvin D Yalom Quotes)
