“Those who ignore the destructive potential of new technologies can do so only because they ignore history . Pogroms are as old as Christendom , but without railways, the telegraph and poison gas there could have been no Holocaust. (..) Scientific fundamentalism claim that science is the disinterested pursuit of the truth. But to represent science in this way is to disregard the human needs science serves. Among us science serves two needs: for hope and censorship. Today only science supports the myth of progress. If people cling to the hope of progress, it is not so much from genuine belief as from fear of what may come if they give it up.”

“Men are motivated and empowered when they feel needed. Women are motivated and empowered when they feel cherished.”
John Gray“A women under stress is not immediately concerned with finding solutions to her problems but rather seeks relief by expressing herself and being understood.”
John Gray“All men and women have an equal need for love. When these needs are not fulfilled it is easy to have our feelings hurt, for which we blame our partner.”
John Gray“When men and women are able to respect and accept their differences then love has a chance to blossom.”
John Gray“Life is filled with rhythms-day and night, hot and cold, summer and winter, spring and fall, cloudy and clear. Likewise in a relationship, men and women have their own rhythms and cycles.”
John Gray“Histories of morality are rarely written in order to inform the reader.”
John Gray“I would love you all the day, every night we would kiss and play, if with me you'd fondly stray, over the hills and far away.”
John Gray“The process of learning requires not only hearing and applying but also forgetting and then remembering again.”
John Gray“If we are to feel the positive feelings of love, happiness, trust, and gratitude, we periodically also have to feel anger, sadness, fear, and sorrow.”
John Gray, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus“The fate of the Right in the late modern age is to destroy what remains of the past in a vain attempt to recover it.”
