Whenever you see shrinks on television, they're so clearly written by patients. They're either idealized or they're demonized or they love their patients. All they ever think about is their patients.

If we're given a number of circumstances to deal with, the brain goes into this mode of trying to find a solution, and it's amazing how good we are at it.

Brain research is the ultimate problem confronting man.

That's the era we grew up in. It's weak to go to a psychiatrist.

Fortunately analysis is not the only way to resolve inner conflicts. Life itself still remains a very effective therapist.

If people can't deal with their problems, they numb themselves a little bit.

Psychoanalysts seem to be long on information and short on application.

It is best to do things systematically, since we are only human, and disorder is our worst enemy.

People need medicine and they need therapists.

I've never, ever had any therapy. Some might say I need it, but I've never seen a shrink or a psychologist or anything like that.
