Talk:Abraham Maslow
From Wikiquote
I am looking for the exact wording of an Abraham Maslow quote that goes something like:
- After a lifetime of working as a psychotherapist, the only happy adults I know are those who belive that the work they are doing is meaningful. -
Anyone know the exact wording?
Thanks.
[edit] Did Maslow Say This?
A common quote attributed to Maslow is "We are not in a position in which we have nothing to work with. We already have capacities, talents, direction, missions, callings." Did he say it? It seems rather facile, one could easily retort "yeah, what's your point? We also have our abandonments, aggressions, burnouts, ignorances, passivities, inabilities, apprehensions, occupations, indolences, abstractions, fatigues, indifferences, habits, weaknesses...."
