« What we hate about ourselves are the harsh and harsh images that are also part of our inner world and which are to a large extent the consequence of our own aggression towards our parents. But, basically, our most violent hatred is directed against hatred within us. We fear this hatred so much that we are driven to use one of our most violent defence mechanisms, projection, by moving it over other people. »

« `...` if the child is not happy enough at the beginning of his life, his ability to hope, to love, to trust will be disrupted. But it does not follow that the ability to love and be happy that develops in the child is in direct proportion to the love given to him. In fact, there are children who, in their unconscious, form very harsh and severe parental images, which disrupts the relationship with the actual parents and others in general, even if the parents have been good and loving towards them. »

« New friendships prove to the child that he is capable of loving and being loved, that love and goodness exist, which is unconsciously felt as proof that he can repair the harm he has done to others in imagination or in fact. Thus, new friendships help to resolve older emotional difficulties without the person being aware of the exact nature of these early disorders or how they are being resolved. »
