Carol Tavris Quotes:
Ocupation: Psychologist
Life: b. September 17, 1944
Birthday: September 17
The individualism of American life, to our glory and despair, creates anger and encourages its release; for when everything is possible, limitations are irksome. When the desires of the self come first, the needs of others are annoying. When we think we deserve it all, reaping only a portion can enrage.
