RELATIONSHIPS

'Although putting on "a face to meet the faces that we meet" (in T.S.Eliot's words) is essential to some degree for all of us everywhere, the more it resembles what lies behind, the more likely it will lead to the expression of our authentic needs (rather than confected wants), and not just the biological ones, like food and sex, but for relatedness to others and playfulness as well.'
Oliver James, Affluenza, p.145.
