Denial exists because human infants, though equipped with trust-o-meters, are built to trust, blindly and absolutely, any older person who wanders past.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Denial has been a way of life for me for many years. I actually believe in denial.
Denial is a very powerful thing.
I have a very highly developed sense of denial.
I learned denial from my mother. I just never confronted things and if anybody did, I just would go crazy.
There are two barriers that often prevent communication between the young and their elders. The first is middle-aged forgetfulness of the fact that they themselves are no longer young. The second is youthful ignorance of the fact that the middle aged are still alive.
The senses deceive from time to time, and it is prudent never to trust wholly those who have deceived us even once.
We live in a world of denial, and we don't know what the truth is anymore.
Unlike grown ups, children have little need to deceive themselves.
When you are young you don't always realise how full of doubts everybody is.
It's not denial. I'm just selective about the reality I accept.
