Ambivalence can ruin your life
Anger or hate can be a useful motivating force
At times your unconsciousness is truer than your conscious mind
Being happy is more important than anything else
Being judgement is a sign of life
Being sure of yourself means you are a fool
Don't place too much trust in experts
Drama often obscures the real issues
Emotional response are as valuable as intellectual response
Enjoy yourself because you can't change anything else anyway
Everyone's work is equally important
Faithfulness is a social not a biological law
Freedom is a luxury not a necessity
Giving free rein to your emotions is an honest way to live
Going with the flow is soothing but risky
Guilt and self-laceration are indulgence
Hiding your emotions is despicable
If you have many desires your life will be interesting
Ignoring enemies is the best way to fight
In some instances it's better to die than continue
It's a gift to the world not to have babies
It's better to be alone than to be with inferior people
It's better to be naive than jaded
Knowing yourself let you understand others
Moral are for little people
Most people are not fit to rule themselves
Often you should act you are sexless
Old friends are better to left in the past
Pain can be very positive thing
People are nuts if they think they are important
People are boring unless they are extremists
Push yourself as often as possible
Romantic love was invented to manipulate woman
Selfishness is the most basic motivation
Selfishness is the highest achievement
The cruelest disappointment is when you let yourself down
The most profound things are inexpressible
Thinking to much can only cause problems
Wishing things away is not effective
Words tend to be inadequate
You can't expect people to be something they are not
You don't know what's what until you support yourself
You have to hurt others to be extraordinary
----My selection from Jenny Holzer, " Truism", 1977 -
