"Until we become fully free, we put up……" — Lester Levenson

"Until we become fully free, we put up a false front, a facade, to others for the purpose of winning the acceptance and approval of others. We behave in accordance with what we think the other one wants rather than by expressing our own real feelings."

— Lester Levenson
