Self deception

“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love.” - Fyodor Dostoevsky Russian novelist, essayist and journalist

Quote: Fyodor Dostoevsky – Russian novelist, essayist and journalist

“The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.” R.D. Laing Scottish psychiatrist

Quote: R.D. Laing – Scottish psychiatrist
