Tweetable Quotes

“Most people have no trouble doing stuff for their own sake. And so we go out and we find hobbies, or we engage in sports. I know men who are in their fifties and sixties and seventies who feel like if they don't get to go out and play golf once a week or once a month or twice a week that life isn't worth living so that they do with compulsion. We're talking about people who are finding time to get away from what they do for a living so they can do this thing. They feel a compulsion about a desire whatever it may be and it's because they have to repress their general idea of desire to be themselves, to find out what is compelling and fascinating, and wonder about their life.” - Dr. Joseph Riggio
