Select Alice Miller Quotations
It is very difficult for people to believe the simple fact that every persecutor was once a victim. Yet it should be very obvious that someone who was allowed to feel free and strong from childhood does not have the need to humiliate another person.
Alice Miller

Alice Miller

Alice Miller

Alice Miller
Today I should not be identified with any kind of regressive therapy.
Alice Miller
