“The world of everyday life is not only taken for granted as reality by the ordinary members of society in the subjectively meaningful conduct of their lives. It is a world that originates in their thoughts and actions, and is maintained as real by these.”
― Peter L. Berger, The Social Construction of Reality: A Treatise in the Sociology of Knowledge

“Society teaches us that to be positive is to be naive and vulnerable, whereas to be critical is to be informed, buttressed and sophisticated. Organizations operate on this negative norm.”
― Nancy Kline, Time to Think: Listening to Ignite the Human Mind

“Whatever patterns are introduced will be continuously modified through the exceedingly variegated and subtle interchange of subjective meanings that goes on.”
― Peter L. Berger, The Social Construction of Reality: A Treatise in the Sociology of Knowledge

“The social reality of everyday life is thus apprehended in a continuum of typifications, which are progressively anonymous as they are removed from the “here and now” of the face-to-face situation.”
― Peter L. Berger, The Social Construction of Reality: A Treatise in the Sociology of Knowledge

“In exploring why it is that so few people appreciate each other directly, I discovered that the problem lies partly with the people being appreciated. They do such a lousy job of receiving. Many people are taught that to be appreciated is the slippery slope of gross immodesty and out-of-control egomania.”
― Nancy Kline, Time to Think: Listening to Ignite the Human Mind
