"We were not born for the purpose of causing trouble and harming others. For our life to be of value, as Piero Ferrucci amply demonstrates here-and I am grateful to him for expressing it so clearly-we need to foster and nurture such basic good human qualities as warmth, kindness, and compassion. If we can do that, our lives will become more meaningful, happier, and more peaceful; we will make a positive contribution to the world around us."

Piero Ferrucci is a psychotherapist and philosopher. He has been a student of and collaborator with Roberto Assagioli, the founder of psychosynthesis. Ferrucci is the author of What We May Be, Inevitable Grace, What Our Children Teach Us, and, with Laura Huxley, The Child of Your Dreams.
