Kindle Notes & Highlights
The concept of transference at once destroys faith in personal relations and explains why they are tragic: we cannot know each other. We must grope around for each other through a dense thicket of absent others. We cannot see each other plain. A horrible kind of predestination hovers over each new attachment we form.
Insight isn’t superficial—it isn’t simply learning something mildly interesting about yourself. It is becoming yourself. It’s finding your way to the child in yourself, it is a profound recognition.
