More quotes by Sigmund Freud
There is a powerful force within us, an un-illuminated part of the mind - separate from the conscious mind that is constantly at work molding our thought, feelings, and actions.
Sigmund Freud
In the important decisions of personal life, we should be governed by the deep inner needs of our nature.
Sigmund Freud
I had thought about cocaine in a kind of day-dream.
Sigmund Freud
No other technique for the conduct of life attaches the individual so firmly to reality as laying emphasis on work for his work at least gives him a secure place in a portion of reality, in the human community.
Sigmund Freud
Maturity is the ability to postpone gratification.
Sigmund Freud
It is unavoidable that if we learn more about a great man's life, we shall also hear of occasions on which he has done no better than we, and has in fact come nearer to us as a human being.
Sigmund Freud
Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.
Sigmund Freud
The reproaches against science for not having yet solved the problems of the universe are exaggerated in an unjust and malicious manner it has truly not had time enough yet for these great achievements. Science is very young--a human activity which developed late.
Sigmund Freud
When one does not have what one wants, one must want what one has.
Sigmund Freud
I have often felt as though I had inherited all the defiance and all the passions with which our ancestors defended their Temple and could gladly sacrifice my life for one great moment in history. And at the same time I always felt so helpless and incapable of expressing these ardent passions even by a word or a poem.
Sigmund Freud
There is a psychological technique which makes it possible to interpret dreams, and ... if that procedure is employed, every dream reveals itself as a psychical structure which has a meaning and which can be inserted at an assignable point in the mental activities of waking life.
Sigmund Freud
Without love we fall ill.
Sigmund Freud
Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy.
Sigmund Freud
A strong egoism is a protection against disease, but in the last resort we must begin to love in order that we may not fall ill, and must fall ill if, in consequence of frustration, we cannot love.
Sigmund Freud
A strong experience in the present awakens in the creative writer a memory of an earlier experience (usually belonging to his childhood) from which there now proceeds a wish which finds its fulfilment in the creative work.
Sigmund Freud
A man should not strive to eliminate his complexes but to get into accord with them: they are legitimately what directs his conduct in the world.
Sigmund Freud
Dreams are the guardians of sleep and not its disturbers.
Sigmund Freud
At bottom God is nothing more than an exalted father.
Sigmund Freud
The voice of the intellect is a soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing.
Sigmund Freud
There is an intellectual function in us which demands unity, connection and intelligibility from any material, whether of perception or thought, that comes within its grasp and if, as a result of special circumstances, it is unable to establish a true connection, it does not hesitate to fabricate a false one.
