Sigmund Freud

Dogs love their friends and bite their enemies, quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure love and always have to mix love and hate in their object-relations.

In the long run nothing can withstand reason and experience, and the contradiction religion offers to both is only too palpable.

No mortal can keep a secret. If the lips are silent, he chatters with his fingertips; betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.

I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father`s protection.
