« What help can we expect here from psychotherapy? It cannot make our childhood lost, it cannot change the facts or erase them. You can't heal wounds with illusions. The paradise of pre-ambivalent harmony, in which so many wounded place all their hopes, is inaccessible. But living our own truth, with the postambivalent knowledge we will acquire from it, allows us on an adult level to find our own emotional world—without paradise, but with the ability to feel and live our emotions, which will make us vital, and help us find our way. »

« The true Self cannot communicate because it has not developed, having remained unconscious, locked up in an inner prison. The use of jailers does not promote development. It is only after liberation that the Self begins to express itself, to grow and to develop its creativity. And where once there existed only this dreaded emptiness or agonizing fantasies of grandeur, a spring of life, of unexpected wealth, arises. It's not a home trip - because we've never had one. It's finding your home. »

« The unconscious, repressed memories that compel us to hide our true Self from ourselves are the successors of our parents. And this is how, to our solitude in the father's house, an inner isolation will follow. »
