Charles Horton Cooley
 We cannot feel strongly toward the totally unlike because it is unimaginable, unrealizable; nor yet toward the wholly like because it is stale -- identity must always be dull company. The power of other natures over us lies in a stimulating difference which causes excitement and opens communication, in ideas similar to our own but not identical, in states of mind attainable but not actual. |
| We have no higher life that is really apart from other people. It is by imagining them that our personality is built up; to be without the power of imagining them is to be a low-grade idiot. |
| When one ceases from conflict, whether because he has won, because he has lost, or because he cares no more for the game, the virtue passes out of him. |
| When one ceases from conflict, whether because he has won, because he has lost, or because he cares no more for the game, the virtue passes out of him. |
| When one has come to accept a certain course as duty he has a pleasant sense of relief and of lifted responsibility, even if the course involves pain and renunciation. It is like obedience to some external authority; any clear way, though it lead to death, is mentally preferable to the tangle of uncertainty. |
