Wilson Quote #247
Quote from Wilson in Fear of Flying
Wilson: Well, Jill, from what you tell me of your family, I'm reminded of the behavior of baboons. The studies showed that the offspring of baboons pick up their parents' fears, whether those fears are justified or not.
Jill: So you're saying I'm afraid for Mark because my mother projected her fears onto me?
Wilson: Well, I can't say that for sure. Jill, have you ever been up in a small plane?
Jill: Of course. The Dumbo ride at Disney World.
Wilson: I think what would really help you is to take a ride in a small aircraft just to see how darn safe they really are.
Jill: I don't think so. I'd be too scared.
Wilson: Well, are you really scared, or are you just echoing your mother's fears?
