"People got insights into what was bothering them, but they hardly did a damn thing to change." ― Albert Ellis Topic(s): Change Tags: insights, people More From Albert Ellis "The art of love is largely the art of persistence." "People could rationally decide that prolonged relationships take up too much time and effort and that they’d much rather do other kinds of things. But most people are afraid of rejection." "For that again, is what all manner of religion essentially is: childish dependency." More In Change "Imagine if the pension funds and endowments that own much of the equity in our financial services companies demanded that those companies revisit the way mortgages were marketed to those without adequate skills to understand the products they were being sold. Management would have to change the way things were done."― Eliot Spitzer "I don’t know how I got to this point but it must be as a result of everything that has come before so if I were to change something, I might not be at this point now."― William Shatner "The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance."― Alan Watts
