"It means: that I want everything for myself; that possessing, not sharing, gives me pleasure;" 2/6 Erich Fromm | To Have or to Be?

"that I must become greedy because if my aim is having, I am more the more I have ." 3/6 Erich Fromm | To Have or to Be?

"I can never be satisfied, because there is no end to my wishes; I must be envious of those who have more and afraid of those who have less." 4/6 Erich Fromm | To Have or to Be?

"But I have to repress all these feelings in order to represent myself (to others as well as to myself) as the smiling, rational, sincere, kind human being everybody pretends to be." 5/6 Erich Fromm | To Have or to Be?
