In honor of the American Psychological Association's
Mental Health Blog Party, I'm featuring a post on famous psychologists and their quotes. Enjoy these wise words of wisdom and inspiration.
People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun's out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light within. ~ Elisabeth Kubler-Ross (1926-2004) Swiss-American Psychiatrist.
"Thought is action in rehearsal." ~ Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) Austrian founder of Psychoanalysis.

"Education is not just the filling of a pail, it is the lighting of a fire." ~ B. F. Skinner (1904-1990) American Psychologist.
"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens." ~ Carl Jung (1875-1961) Swiss Psychiatrist.

Who knew Freud was a cognitive behavioralist? ;)
Wanda,
I like these quotes. I just wish there were more famous women shrinks back in the day and now!

He was a man of many schools. He just didn't know that!
LOVE these!! If I could successfully implement some of these, I'd be much better off. Sadly, I'm struggling with very basics right now lol.
Thanks Dr. Deb for sharing these thought provoking quotes from such an array of psychologists. I also shared your post with our population-we™ readers at our Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Population-We/174791929198228

something to remember
Absolutely fantastic!
Thanks for sharing, you're wonderful!!
If only people gave more acknowledgement to Freud for his many timeless insights...
The quote from Horney is a classic also. So often I wish my patients would take more risks in their lives and have more experiences that would help their growth.
Thanks for sharing information....Thanks
