Life is complex. each one of us must make his own path through life. there are no self-help manuals, no formulas, no easy answers. the right road for one is the wrong road for another...the journey of life is not paved in blacktop; it is not brightly lit, and it has no road signs. it is a rocky path through the wilderness.

Life Is Complex. Each One Of Us

M. Scott Peck
Life is complex. each one of us must make his own path through life. there are no self-help manuals, no formulas, no easy answers. the right road for one is the wrong road for another...the journey of life is not paved in blacktop; it is not brightly lit, and it has no road signs. it is a rocky path through the wilderness.

The signs that presage growth, so similar, it seems to me, to those in early adolescence: discontent, restlessness, doubt, despair, longing, are interpreted falsely as signs of decay. in youth one does not as often misinterpret the signs; one accepts them, quite rightly, as growing pains. one takes them seriously, listens to them, follows where they lead. ... but in the middle age, because of the false assumption that it is a period of decline, one interprets these life-signs, paradoxically, as signs of approaching death.

It’s wrong to hate. it always has been wrong and it always will be wrong! it’s wrong in america, it’s wrong in germany, it’s wrong in russia, it’s wrong in china! it was wrong in two thousand b.c., and it’s wrong in nineteen fifty-four a.d.! it always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong!

That is how life goes--we send our children into the wilderness. some of them on the day they are born, it seems, for all the help we can give them. some of them seem to be a kind of wilderness unto themselves. but there must be angels there, too, and springs of water. even that wilderness, the very habitation of jackals, is the lord's.

Abandon the urge to simplify everything, to look for formulas and easy answers, and to begin to think multidimensionally, to glory in the mystery and paradoxes of life, not to be dismayed by the multitude of causes and consequences that are inherent in each experience -- to appreciate the fact that life is complex.
Life Appreciation Thinking
I am asserting that those who love the wilderness should not be wholly deprived of it, that while the reduction of the wilderness has been a good thing, its extermination would be a very bad one, and that the conservation of wilderness is the most urgent and difficult of all the tasks that confront us, because there are no economic laws to help and many to hinder its accomplishment.

His second motto: thou, nature, art my goddess; to thy laws my services are bound.

If you want knowledge, you must toil for it; if food, you must toil for it; and if pleasure, you must toil for it: toil is the law.
Law Toil Want
To suppose universal laws of nature capable of being apprehended by the mind and yet having no reason for their special forms, but standing inexplicable and irrational, is hardly a justifiable position. uniformities are precisely the sort of facts that need to be accounted for. law is par excellence the thing that wants a reason. now the only possible way of accounting for the laws of nature, and for uniformity in general, is to suppose them results of evolution.
