“While one might laugh at the meaningless boredom of people a decade or...” — Rollo May Quote

“While one might laugh at the meaningless boredom of people a decade or two ago, the emptiness has for many now moved from the state of boredom to a state of futility and despair, which holds promise of dangers.”

“Freedom always deals with 'the possible'; this gives freedom its great flexibility, its fascination, and its dangers.”

“Intimacy requires courage because risk is inescapable. We cannot know at the outset how the relationship will affect us. Like a chemical mixture, if one of us is changed, both of us will be. Will we grow in self-actualization, or will it destroy us? The one thing we can be certain of is that if we let ourselves fully into the relationship for good or evil, we will not come out unaffected.”

“Boredom means you develop your own interior life.”

“Sooner barbarity than boredom.”

“I was a housewife, I suppose, and luckily I have a very high boredom threshold.”
