Gabor Maté
“The difference between passion and addiction is that between a divine spark and a flame that incinerates.”
Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction

Gabor Maté
“Not why the addiction but why the pain.”
Gabor Maté

Gabor Maté
“In the real world there is no nature vs. nurture argument, only an infinitely complex and moment-by-moment interaction between genetic and environmental effects”
Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction

Gabor Maté
“It is impossible to understand addiction without asking what relief the addict finds, or hopes to find, in the drug or the addictive behaviour.”
Gabor Mate, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction

Gabor Maté
“Not every story has a happy ending, ... but the discoveries of science, the teachings of the heart, and the revelations of the soul all assure us that no human being is ever beyond redemption. The possibility of renewal exists so long as life exists. How to support that possibility in others and in ourselves is the ultimate question.”
Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction
