Quotes by Joseph Chilton Pearce

“Play is the exultation of the possible.”

“To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.”

“We are shaped by each other. We adjust not to the reality of a world, but to the reality of other thinkers.”

“For only as we ourselves, as adults, actually move and have our being in the state of love, can we be appropriate models and guides for our children. What we are teaches the child far more than what we say, so we must be what we want our children to become.”

“We live in a web of ideas, a fabric of our own making.”

What we are teaches the child far more than what we say, so we must be what we want our children to become.

Seeing within changes ones outer vision.

Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold.
