We believe it is bad or dangerous to be carried away by our emotions. We admire the person who is cool, who acts without feeling.

- Alexander Lowen

The modern individual is committed to being successful, not to being a person. He belongs rightly to the 'action generation' whose motto is 'do more but feel less.'
