"He sido un hombre afortunado en la vida, nada me ha sido facil." "I've been a fortunate man in life, nothing has come easy"

We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love, never so forlornly unhappy as when we have lost our love object or its love.

I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.

The tendency to aggression is an innate, independent, instinctual disposition in man... it constitutes the powerful obstacle to culture.
