M. Scott Peck Problem Quotations

We cannot solve life's problems except by solving them.

It is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually.

Problems are the cutting edge that distinguishes between success and failure. Problems ... create our courage and wisdom.

We cannot solve a problem by saying, "It's not my problem." We cannot solve a problem by hoping that someone else will solve it for us. I can solve a problem only when I say, "This is my problem and it's up to me to solve it."

With total discipline we can solve all problems.

Discipline is the basic set of tools we require to solve life’s problems. Without discipline we can solve nothing. With only some discipline we can solve only some problems. With total discipline we can solve all problems.

Problems call forth our courage and our wisdom; indeed, they create our courage and wisdom.
