More quotes by Sigmund Freud

Image

Sigmund Freud
Image
What progress we are making. In the Middle Ages they would have burned me. Now they are content with burning my books.
Sigmund Freud
Image
If you want your wife to listen to you, then talk to another woman she will be all ears.
Sigmund Freud
Image
Civilized society is perpetually menaced with disintegration through this primary hostility of men towards one another.
Sigmund Freud
Image
In the development of mankind as a whole, just as in individuals, love alone acts as the civilizing factor in the sense that it brings a change from egoism to altruism.
Sigmund Freud
Image
A transference neurosis corresponds to a conflict between ego and id, a narcissistic neurosis corresponds to that between between ego and super-ego, and a psychosis to that between ego and outer world.
Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud
Image
Neurosis is the result of a conflict between the ego and its id, whereas psychosis is the analogous outcome of a similar disturbance in the relation between the ego and the external world.
Sigmund Freud

Sigmund Freud
Image
It would be very nice if there were a God who created the world and was a benevolent providence, and if there were a moral order in the universe and an after-life but it is a very striking fact that all this is exactly as we are bound to wish it to be.
Sigmund Freud
Image
Religious ideas have sprung from the same need as all the other achievements of culture: from the necessity for defending itself against the crushing supremacy of nature.
Sigmund Freud
Image
Crystals reveal their hidden structures only when broken.
Sigmund Freud
Image
The psychic development of the individual is a short repetition of the course of development of the race.
Sigmund Freud
Image
We may say that hysteria is a caricature of an artistic creation, a compulsion neurosis a caricature of a religion, and a paranoiac delusion a caricature of a philosophic system.
Sigmund Freud
Image
dream is the dreamer's own psychical act.
Sigmund Freud
Image
The first human who hurled an insult instead of a stone was the founder of civilization.
Sigmund Freud
Image
Thinking in pictures is, therefore, only a very incomplete form of becoming conscious. In some way, too, it stands nearer to unconscious processes than does thinking in words, and it is unquestionably older than the latter both ontogenetically and phylogenetically.
Sigmund Freud
Image
When a man is freed of religion, he has a better chance to live a normal and wholesome life.
Sigmund Freud
Image
Cigars served me for precisely fifty years as protection and a weapon in the combat of life... I owe to the cigar a great intensification of my capacity to work and a facilitation of my self-control.
