Psychiatrists Quotes

Sometimes its said that psychiatrists are doctors who are frightened by the sight of blood. I might have fallen into that category Picture Quote #1

Considering the importance of resentment in our lives, and the damage it does, it receives scant attention from psychiatrists and psychologists. Resentment is a great rationalizer: it presents us with selected versions of our own past, so that we do not recognize our own mistakes and avoid the necessity to make painful choices Picture Quote #1

I expect most psychiatrists have a patient or two they’d like to refer to me Picture Quote #1

The new psychiatrists say that everything and anything can be traced back to sexual causes. Their method, for example, could be explained as the eroticism of father confessors Picture Quote #1

If ever we needed in this country to adopt a new attitude towards homosexuality, this is the time. Instead of treating it as a crime, and driving it underground, we ought to recognize it for what it is: it’s a mental illness, it’s a psychiatric condition which ought to be treated sympathetically by psychiatrists and social workers Picture Quote #1

It is amazing to observe how many psychologists and psychiatrists have accepted this sort of propaganda, and have come to believe that homosexual males and females are discretely different from persons who respond to natural stimuli. Instead of using these terms as substantives which stand for persons, or even as adjectives to describe persons, they may better be used to describe the nature of the overt sexual relations, or of the stimuli to which an individual erotically responds Picture Quote #1

If the race is to be freed from its crippling burden of good and evil it must be psychiatrists who take the original responsibility Picture Quote #1

... the pretense is made, as it has been made in relation to the finding of any extension of truth, that to do away with right and wrong would produce uncivilized people, immorality, lawlessness and social chaos. The fact is that most psychiatrists and psychologists and other respected people have escaped from moral chains and are able to think freely Picture Quote #1

If any feel that as psychiatrists directing a hospital for alcoholics we appear somewhat sentimental, let them stand with us a while on the firing line, see the tragedies, the despairing wives, the little children; let the solving of these problems become a part of their daily work, and even of their sleeping moments, and the most cynical will not wonder that we have accepted and encouraged this movement. We feel, after years of experience, that we have found nothing which has contributed more to the rehabilitation of these men than the altruistic movement now growing up among them Picture Quote #1

Isn’t it boring... how people always want to tell you their own stories instead of listening to yours? I suppose that’s why psychiatrists are better than friends; the paid listener doesn’t interrupt with his own experiences Picture Quote #1

Editors and their authors seldom form deep friendships for the same reason that psychiatrists and their patients keep their distance: The relationship requires candor that mixes poorly with intimacy Picture Quote #1

Psychiatrists say that 1 of 4 people are mentally ill. Check 3 friends. If they are okay, you’re it Picture Quote #1
