Sigmund Freud
Psychiatry is the art of teaching people how to stand on their own feet while reclining on couches.
Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud
It is impossible to escape the impression that people commonly use false standards of measurement -- that they seek power, success and wealth for themselves and admire them in others, and that they underestimate what is of true value in life.
Sigmund Freud
All family life is organized around the most damaged person in it.
Sigmund Freud
He that has eyes to see and ears to hear may convince himself that no mortal can keep a secret. If his lips are silent, he chatters with his fingertips betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.
Sigmund Freud
Instinct of love toward an object demands a mastery to obtain it, and if a person feels they can't control the object or feel threatened by it, they act negatively toward it.
Sigmund Freud
