“Maslow explained that, some time in the late thirties, he had been struck by the thought that modern psychology is based on the study of sick people. But since there are more healthy people around than sick people, how can this psychology give a fair idea of the workings of the human mind? It struck him that it might be worthwhile to devote some time to the study of healthy people.”

Colin Wilson (1931–2013) author

“We’ve never had more energy, more creativity or more talent in our caucus, do expectations sometimes get raised to a level that we maybe can’t meet? Sure. But we will always be willing to take on that challenge to do things like we did today in overriding the Governor. I think we need some of these ad hoc committees to create public policy that is driven by our caucus, our caucus needs to be crafting and riving policy, not the people paid to hang around in these hallways.”
