Quotes by Edwin A. Locke  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Self-esteem is an essential psychological need—no one can live with the conviction that they are fundamentally no good, so people who lack the real thing attempt to fake it.”
Edwin A. Locke, The Selfish Path to Romance: How to Love with Passion and Reason

“A “conditioning” model, which is at root based on the assumption of mindless, subconscious determinism, is completely hopeless for understanding even something as basic as shopping—not to mention human action in general.”
Edwin A. Locke, The Illusion of Determinism: Why Free Will Is Real and Causal

“The answer is: the rational faculty, the ability to conceptualize. This was a giant step in evolution, although there were evidently many intermediate species between the apes and modern humans across a period of perhaps six million years.”
Edwin A. Locke, The Illusion of Determinism: Why Free Will Is Real and Causal
