Famous quotes containing the words object and/or focus:
“The object of love expands and grows before us to eternity, until it includes all that is lovely, and we become all that can love.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“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)
