Just like everybody else, celebrities have brains and those brains get conditions - addiction, depression.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
People now know of the word intervention and think they understand what it means, but more often than not they go about intervening the wrong way. I see people staging things on their own. But discussing the nature of somebody's condition over breakfast isn't an intervention.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
There are different techniques - some interventionists are really loving, others are very tough.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
Crying is scary to men! To us, it's a sign that something completely earth-shattering is happening.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
Childhood trauma is the rocket fuel for addictive pathology, and this fundamental truth is laid bare in 'Patrick Melrose.'
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
People have sort of been swirling around me, going, 'Oh, you should run for mayor.' Well I didn't really want that job. 'Well, you should run for governor.' Well, that's not really possible.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
I tell everybody, no one understands how challenging and stressful practicing medicine is.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
When I started out, no one would talk to young people about HIV or AIDS. I looked around and radio looked like a powerful way to shape culture in a healthy way.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
It used to be radio was the place that young people gathered to get their information.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
The history of the office of First Lady had not been kind to those with mental health issues.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
People who have had severe childhood traumas lack the ability to regulate emotions and, as a result, gravitate toward whatever primitive means they can come up with.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
I was doing general medicine and during residency, I moonlighted at a psychiatric hospital and became very interested in the medical care of psychiatric patients.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
We want to blame people who have brain disorders - they should somehow be able to magically rise above it. It's a profound misconception.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
If you're experiencing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, uncontrolled use of substances, or any other behaviors that affect your functioning, please see a professional.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
Symptoms that may seem psychiatric or psychological can actually be signs of a medical condition.
Quote by -Drew Pinsky
When life is sweet, say thank you and celebrate. When life is bitter, say thank you and grow.
Quote by -Shauna Niquist
Nobody could like Donald Trump, surely, except his mother. No one really likes The Donald. But how can you not have respect for a guy who's been down on the floor and just keeps coming back? Nothing will keep Donald Trump down until they drive a wooden stake in his heart and a silver bullet in his brain.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
You have to persuade yourself that you absolutely don't care what happens. If you don't care, you've won. I absolutely promise you, in every serious negotiation, the man or woman who doesn't care is going to win.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
There is never a time in a company's history when cost control can be relegated to the back burner, but for a startup company, keeping costs low is a vital necessity.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
I'm so suspicious of our own understanding of the past. I just think that your mind plays absolute tricks on you and fools you every minute of every day. And so when you're talking about the past, you're talking about something that never happened. At least it didn't happen the way you think it happened.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
I've always noted with some awe the reading habits of the Australian public. Australians read more newspapers and magazines per head of population than almost any other country in the world.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
You can collect all the plastic bottle caps you want as long as you give me the money so we can get off this death trap, find somewhere else and have tremendous fun screwing that up as well.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
When you're writing, you're in a totally different zone... I can start a difficult poem and look up at the clock and see to my astonishment that three hours have passed.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
As with the onset of sudden celebrity, for the newly rich, the world often becomes a darker, narrower, less generous place; a paradox that elicits scant sympathy, but is nonetheless true.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
When I see something that's wrong, I just speak and act first and I'll take the consequences later.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
'Great Expectations' has been described as 'Dickens's harshest indictment of society.' Which it is. After all, it's about money. About not having enough money; about the fever of the getting of money; about having too much money; about the taint of money.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
America, ladies and gentlemen, has done more for me financially than Britain ever has, or ever could have done.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
The rich are not a contented tribe. The demands from others to share their wealth become so tiresome, so insistent, they often decide they must insulate themselves. Insulation eventually breeds a mild form of paranoia.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
With a poetry book I can send 100 copies out to reviewers and other people, and even do it in advance and get their response. It's difficult with iPad: how do you send it out for free, and how do you even disseminate it before it goes into their store?
Quote by -Felix Dennis
Poetry is one of the oldest of all art forms, and one of its powers for shamans and tribal leaders was the mnemonic.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
Overhead will eat you alive if not constantly viewed as a parasite to be exterminated. Never mind the bleating of those you employ. Hold out until mutiny is imminent before employing even a single additional member of staff. More startups are wrecked by overstaffing than by any other cause, bar failure to monitor cash flow.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
The planet doesn't require saving, and actually hasn't asked Greenpeace to save it.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
What is negotiation but the accumulation of small lies leading to advantage?
Quote by -Felix Dennis
I think having a great idea is vastly overrated. I know it sounds kind of crazy and counterintuitive. I don't think it matters what the idea is, almost. You need great execution.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
America is an empire. I hope you know that now. All empires, by definition, are bumbling, shambolic, bullying, bureaucratic affairs, as certain of the rightness of their cause in infancy, as they are corrupted by power in their dotage.
Quote by -Felix Dennis
There are far too many people in university in Britain. If you want to make money, be a plumber.
