A couple of things that I have filed in the same 'folder'. They're, sort of, related.
"“My success in law school, I have no doubt, was in large measure because of baby Jane...I attended classes and studied diligently until 4 in the afternoon; the next hours were Jane’s time, spent at the park, playing silly games or singing funny songs, reading picture books and A. A. Milne poems, and bathing and feeding her. After Jane’s bedtime, I returned to the law books with renewed will. Each part of my life provided respite from the other and gave me a sense of proportion that classmates trained only on law studies lacked.”"
"There is a fundamental tension in the human psyche, says Peter Coleman, between coherence and complexity; he calls it the ‘crude law’ of our existence. We want resolution and closure at the same time as we want interest and novelty. We seek order, and we seek freedom. Problems arise when we feel pushed too far in one direction or the other. Societies that are too ordered become stifling and oppressive; those that have no coherence are unsettling and alienating."
