People don't just get upset. They contribute to their upsetness.

We teach people that they upset themselves. We can't change the past, so we change how people are thinking, feeling and behaving today.

I get people to truly accept themselves unconditionally, whether or not their therapist or anyone loves them.

As a result of my philosophy, I wasn't even upset about Hitler. I was willing to go to war to knock him off, but I didn't hate him. I hated what he was doing.

In the old days we used to get more referrals, because people had insurance that paid for therapy. Now they belong to HMOs, and we can only be affiliated with a few HMOs.

Acceptance is not love. You love a person because he or she has lovable traits, but you accept everybody just because they're alive and human.
