Dan McAdams Quotes

«We aren't telling ourselves lies; we're composing heroic narratives that tell us essential truths about ourselves.»
Author: Dan McAdams
«The perspective is that of the creator looking back on the fruits of his or her creation and gracefully accepting what has been made. If the creator rejects the creation, the creator experiences despair. The identity is not worth accepting, and it is too late to create a new one. To find integrity in life, you must look back upon your personal myth and determine that, for all its shortcomings and limitations, it is good.»
Author: Dan McAdams
«It's not one of those jobs where you take a particular path. The stars kind of have to line up for you.»
