Taught Us Quotes - Page 6

• El psicoanálisis nos ha enseñado que los primeros objetos de amor elegidos por el niño son incestuosos, y que esos objetos son prohibidos: su madre y su hermana. También hemos aprendido la forma en que, a medida que crece, se libera de esta atracción incestuosa. Un neurótico, por otra parte, muestra invariablemente cierto grado de infantilismo psíquico. O bien no ha logrado liberarse de las condiciones psicosexuales que prevalecían en su infancia, o bien ha vuelto a ellas, dos posibilidades que pueden resumirse como inhibición y regresión del desarrollo.

• In that daily effort in which intelligence and passion mingle and delight each other, the absurd man discovers a discipline that will make up the greatest of his strengths. The required diligence and doggedness and lucidity thus resemble the conqueror's attitude. To create is likewise to give a shape to one's fate. For all these characters, their work defines them at least as much as it is defined by them. The actor taught us this: There is no frontier between being and appearing.

• To science we owe dramatic changes in our smug self-image. Astronomy taught us that our Earth is not the center of the universe, but merely one of nine planets circling one of billions of stars. From biology we learned that humans were not specially created by God but evolved along with tens of millions of other species.

• Luckily, I remembered something Malcolm Cowley had taught us at Stanford - perhaps the most important lesson a writing class (not a writer, understand, but a class) can ever learn. 'Be gentle with one another's efforts,' he often admonished us. 'Be kind and considerate with your criticism. Always remember that it's just as hard to write a bad book as it is to write a good book.'

• The free expression of opinion, as experience has taught us, is the safety-valve of passion. The noise of the rushing steam, when it escapes, alarms the timid; but it is the sign that we are safe. The concession of reasonable privilege anticipates the growth of furious-appetite.

• Chrysostom, I remember, mentions a twofold book of God: the book of the creatures, and the book of the scriptures. God, having taught us first of all by his works, did it afterwards, by his Words.
