For the longest time, neuroscientists were forced to be passive observers of brain activity.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It could be - and it has been argued, in my view rather plausibly, though neuroscientists don't like it - that neuroscience for the last couple hundred years has been on the wrong track.
Neuroscientists are novices at deception.
We're all controlled neurotics.
It is actually the neuroscientists and evolutionists who do the best job of explaining the reasons behind the most unreasonable behavior.
A considerable number of persons are able to protect themselves against the outbreak of serious neurotic phenomena only through intense work.
Actually, I think my view is compatible with much of the work going on now in neuroscience and psychology, where people are studying the relationship of consciousness to neural and cognitive processes without really trying to reduce it to those processes.
Mental events, it is said, are not passive happenings but the acts of a subject.
All our behaviours are a result of neurophysiological activity in the brain.
I'm tremendously optimistic about the future of my discipline, yet understanding the brain is so difficult that we neuroscientists need help.
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.
