Famous quotes containing the words focus and/or program:

    If we focus mostly on how we might have been partly or wholly to blame for what might have been less than a perfect, problem- free childhood, our guilt will overwhelm their pain. It becomes a story about us, not them. . . . When we listen, accept, and acknowledge, we feel regret instead, which is simply guilt without neurosis.
    Jane Adams (20th century)

    Texas is a heaven for men and dogs but hell for women and oxen.
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
