Life is about Being and Becoming (Carl Rogers Quotes)
It is that the individual has within him or herself vast resources for self-understanding, for altering the self-concept basic attitudes, and his or her self-directed behavior - and that these resources can be tapped if only a definable climate of facilitative psychological attitudes can be provided (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Don’t be a damned ammunition wagon. Be a rifle! (Carl Rogers Quotes)

Neurotic behavior is quite predictable. Healthy behavior is unpredictable (Carl Rogers Quotes)
What I am is good enough if I would only be it openly (Carl Rogers Quotes)
So, as you can readily see from what I have said thus far, a creative, active, sensitive, accurate, empathic, nonjudgmental listening is for me terribly important in a relationship. It is important for me to provide it; it has been extremely important, especially at certain times in my life, to receive it. I feel that I have grown within myself when I have provided it; I am very sure that I have grown and been released and enhanced when I have received this kind of listening (Carl Rogers Quotes)
What you are to be, you are now becoming (Carl Rogers Quotes)

As no one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves (Carl Rogers Quotes)
We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are. Then change seems to come about almost unnoticed (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Learning of all kinds goes on best, lasts best, and tends to lead itself on more when it grows out of a real focus of interest in the learner (Carl Rogers Quotes)
I am increasingly an architect of self. I am free to will and choose. I can, through accepting my individuality... become more of my uniqueness, more of my potentiality (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Experience is the highest authority (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Openness to all attitudes no matter how extreme or unrealistic they may seem (Carl Rogers Quotes)
The way of being with another person which is termed empathic... means temporarily living in their life, moving abut in it delicately without making judgment... to be with another in this way means that for the time being you lay aside the views and values you hold for yourself in order to enter the other’s world without prejudice... a complex, demanding, strong yet subtle and gentle way of being (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Each person is an island unto himself, in a very real sense; and he can only build bridges to other islands if he is first of all willing to be himself and permitted to be himself (Carl Rogers Quotes)
Empathy is a special way of coming to know another and ourself, a kind of attuning and understanding. When empathy is extended, it satisfies our needs and wish for intimacy, it rescues us from our feelings of aloneness (Carl Rogers Quotes)
There is another peculiar satisfaction in really hearing someone: It is like listening to the music of the spheres, because beyond the immediate message of the person, no matter what that might be, there is the universal. Hidden in all of the personal communications which I really hear there seem to be orderly psychological laws, aspects of the same order we find in the universe as a whole. So there is both the satisfaction of hearing this person and also the satisfaction of feeling one’s self in touch with what is universally true (Carl Rogers Quotes)
I believe I know why it is satisfying to me to hear someone. When I can really hear someone, it puts me in touch with him; it enriches my life. It is through hearing people that I have learned all that I know about individuals, about personality, about interpersonal relationships (Carl Rogers Quotes)
The state of empathy, or being empathic, is to perceive the internal frame of reference of another with accuracy and with the emotional components and meanings which pertain thereto as if one were the person (Carl Rogers Quotes)
