What do you do when you don't know what to do? No wonder there are more suicides among psychiatrists than in any other profession.

We are effectively destroying ourselves by violence masquerading as love.

We live equally out of our bodies and out of our minds.

A man who says that men are machines may be a great scientist. A man who says he is a machine is 'depersonalized' in psychiatric jargon.

The condition of alienation, of being asleep, of being unconscious, of being out of one's mind, is the condition of the normal man.

Alienation as our present destiny is achieved only by outrageous violence perpetrated by human beings on human beings.

A lot of the time I'm in the present, and I'm thinking about the past or scheming about the future and missing every present moment, instead of actually partaking of the sacrament of every present moment.
