Although Freud said happiness is composed of love and work, reality often forces us to choose love or work.

Letty Cottin Pogrebin And these two elements are at odds with one another because Freud is utterly adversary to almost all the ways of structuring the human experience found in Western religions. No Western religion can countenance Freud's view of man. Chaim Potok And yet there are some magnificent things from Freud, profound insights into the nature of man. Chaim Potok As a piece of literacy criticism, Freud's best writing is about Dostoyevsky. It's a kind of displaced literacy criticism. Dennis Potter Freud had a gene for inefficiency, and I think I have a gene for efficiency. Albert Ellis Freud has shown one thing very clearly: that we only forget our infancy by burying it in the unconscious; and that the problems of this difficult period find their solution under a disguised form in adult life. Herbert Read Freud is the father of psychoanalysis. It has no mother. Germaine Greer Freud published The Interpretation of Dreams in 1900. It introduced the notion that there existed certain predictable and identifiable processes by which dreams were formed. Henry Reed Freud said that we are born as a tabula rasa. This is a model that simply is too superficial and inadequate. Stanislav Grof Freud was a hero. He descended to the Underworld and met there stark terrors. He carried with him his theory as a Medusa's head which turned these terrors to stone. R. D. Laing Freud's view is that all love is sexual in its origin or its basis. Even those loves which do not appear to be sexual or erotic have a sexual root or core. They are all sublimations of the sexual instinct. Mortimer Adler I don't admire Freud as much as some people do. Imagine Shakespeare being aware of the Oedipal complex when he wrote Hamlet. It would have been a disaster. Nathalie Sarraute I read Freud's Introductory Lectures in Psychoanalysis in basically one sitting. I decided to enroll in medical school. It was almost like a conversion experience. Stanislav Grof I think Freud is about contamination, but I think that is something he learned from Shakespeare, because Shakespeare is about nothing but contamination, you might say. Harold Bloom I'd like to be for cinema what Shakespeare was for theatre, Marx for politics and Freud for psychology: someone after whom nothing is as it used to be. Rainer W. Fassbinder I've never gone into analysis. But Freud opened a door, I know. Dario Argento If some really acute observer made as much of egotism as Freud has made of sex, people would forget a good deal about sex and find the explanation for everything in egotism. Wallace Stevens In fact, it is Shakespeare who gives us the map of the mind. It is Shakespeare who invents Freudian Psychology. Freud finds ways of translating it into supposedly analytical vocabulary. Harold Bloom Indeed the three prophecies about the death of individual art are, in their different ways, those of Hegel, Marx, and Freud. I don't see any way of getting beyond those prophecies. Harold Bloom Kinsey thought that Freud in his own way was as dangerous as the Catholic Church. Bill Condon |
