If we
ever do end up acting just like rats or Pavlov's
dogs, it will be largely because behaviorism has
conditioned us to do so.
-- Richard D. Rosen
Physics does not change the nature of the world it
studies, and no science of behavior can change the
essential nature of man, even though both sciences
yield technologies with a vast power to manipulate
the subject matters.
-- Burrhus Frederic
Skinner
1904-1990, American
Psychologist
When
man learns to understand and control his own
behavior as well as he is learning to understand and
control the behavior of crop plants and domestic
animals, he may be justified in believing that he
has become civilized.
-- E. G. Stakman
Many
people love in themselves what they hate in others.
-- Benzel Sternan
