“Beware [of] the fury of a patient man.”
Dorothy Grover Bolton, People Styles at Work... .And Beyond: Making Bad Relationships Good and Good Relationships Better

“Practice makes perfect,” is misleading. When practicing, many people do the behavior by rote—without thinking about what they’re doing. But this kind of practice does not make perfect. Quite the opposite. Instead of leading to perfection, rote practice tends to make permanent the current less-than-desirable level of ability.”
Dorothy Grover Bolton, People Styles at Work... .And Beyond: Making Bad Relationships Good and Good Relationships Better

“My-way-not-your-way is the most tension-producing, dissatisfying, time-wasting, energy-draining, relationship-breaking, activity known to man, woman or child.”
Dorothy Grover Bolton, People Styles at Work... .And Beyond: Making Bad Relationships Good and Good Relationships Better

“Silence isn’t always golden; sometimes it’s just yellow.”
Dorothy Grover Bolton, People Styles at Work... .And Beyond: Making Bad Relationships Good and Good Relationships Better

“If you do not want what I want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong. Or if my beliefs are different from yours, at least pause before you set out to correct them. Or if my emotion seems less or more intense than yours, given the same circumstances, try not to ask me to feel other than I do. Or if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of your design for action, please let me be. I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up trying to change me into a copy of you.”
David Keirsey, Please Understand Me II
