M. Scott Peck Quotes

We Do Not Know What Our Pets Are Thinking. This Lack Of Knowledge Allows Us To Project Onto Our Pets Our Own Thoughts And Feelings, And Thereby To Feel An Emotional Closeness With Them Which May Not Correspond To Reality At All. Second, We Find Our Pets Satisfactory Only Insofar As Their Wills Coincide With Ours. This Is The Basis On Which We Generally Select Our Pets, And If Their Wills Begin To Diverge Significantly From Our Own, We Get Rid Of Them. We Don't Keep Pets Around Very Long When They Protest Or Fight Back Against Us.
