The healthy life is hardly one marked by an absence of crises. In fact, an individual’s psychological health is distinguished by how early he or she can meet crisis.
M. Scott Peck Quotes

About
Peck was born in New York City, the son of Elizabeth and David Warner Peck, an attorney and judge. Peck was raised a Protestant. His parents sent him to the prestigious boarding school Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire, when he was 13. In his book, The Road Less Traveled, he confides the story of his brief stay at Exeter, and admits that it was a most miserable time.
