« Beating an adult is called torture, beating a child as an educational measure. »

« Today's children will be tomorrow's citizens. They were unable to defend themselves against the aggressions of their parents, they were in distress, they had to suppress their anger deeply to avoid further blows/punishments. But as adults this anger awakens and is directed in particular at their own children, but also at other people who can be used with impunity as scapegoats. In a higher position it is even possible to manipulate an entire people to pour out their accumulated anger towards millions of people. In my book "Breaking the Wall of Silence" I took Ceausescu's example by helping me with many details of how his regime works in Romania. Many people suppress their anger at others, but punish themselves for what they have been done, as they learned as children and as their religions force them to do. They get sick, are addicted to drugs and drugs and suffer from depression. They come to terms with it so they never blame their parents. »

« Vera is right. We adults do not need unconditional love. Not even from our therapist. This is a child's need, impossible to satisfy afterwards. Who has not mourned this loss in his childhood feeds on illusions . Our therapist must show honesty, respect, trust, empathy and understanding towards us, we need his ability to clarify his own feelings and not make us bear the weight. And all this, we can get it. But if someone promises to love us "unconditionally", perhaps we should be wary. Vera has finally found what she had vainly sought for so long, she owes it to her firm resolve to find the truth and no longer be deceived. The signals from her body helped her in this way. »
