I think that in general it is a good plan occasionally to bear in mind the fact that people were in the habit of dreaming before there was such a thing as psychoanalysis.

It almost looks like analysis were the third of those 'impossible' professions in which one can be quite sure of unsatisfying results. The other two, much older-established, are the bringing up of children and the government of nations.

The idea of life having a purpose stands and falls with the religious system.

The only unnatural sexual behavior is none at all.

The sexual wishes in regard to the mother become more intense and the father is perceived as an obstacle to the; this gives rise to the Oedipus complex.

A man who has been the indisputable favorite of his mother keeps for life the feeling of a conqueror.

Where they love they do not desire and where they desire they do not love.
