12 Famous quotes by Alice Miller

"I was not out to paint beautiful pictures; even painting good pictures was not important to me. I wanted only to help the truth burst forth"
"Today I should not be identified with any kind of regressive therapy"

"There are people who have benefited from therapy without being confronted with the past at all"
"The reason why parents mistreat their children has less to do with character and temperament than with the fact that they were mistreated themselves and were not permitted to defend themselves"
