We have long observed that every neurosis has the result, and therefore probably the purpose, of forcing the patient out of real life, of alienating him from actuality.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Love and work... work and love, that's all there is.
Yes, America is gigantic, but a gigantic mistake.
