Urosis Quotes

The scars left from the child’s defeat in the fight against irrational authority are to be found at the bottom of every neurosis Picture Quote #1

Neurosis can be understood best as the battle between tendencies within an individual; deep character analysis leads, if successful, to the progressive solution Picture Quote #1

I’m looking for the novelists whose writing is an extension of their intellect rather than an extension of their neurosis Picture Quote #1

Our neurosis and our wisdom are made out of the same material. If you throw out your neurosis, you also throw out your wisdom Picture Quote #1

People who are extremely inside their head, like he was, are caught in a neurosis that goes round and round. Then something will hook them and take them to their end and they can’t control it Picture Quote #1

In building a path through the self to the far shore of awareness, we have to carefully pick our way through our own wilderness. If we can put our minds into a place of surrender, we will have an easier time feeling the contours of the land. We do not have to break our way through as much as we have to find our way around the major obstacles. We do not have to cure every neurosis, we just have to learn how not to be caught by them Picture Quote #1

Modern neurosis began with the discoveries of Copernicus. Science made man feel small by showing him that the Earth was not the center of the universe Picture Quote #1

About a third of my cases are suffering from no clinically definable neurosis, but from the senselessness and emptiness of their lives. This can be defined as the general neurosis of our times Picture Quote #1

The weakling and the neurotic attached to his neurosis are not anxious to turn such a powerful searchlight upon the dark corners of their psychology Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Every neurosis is a primitive form of legal proceeding in which the accused carries on the prosecution, imposes judgment and executes the sentence: all to the end that someone else should not perform the same process Picture Quote #1

It is said that those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad. It may well be that a war neurosis stirred up by propaganda of fear and hatred is the prelude to destruction Picture Quote #1

The good writing of any age has always been the product of someone’s neurosis, and we’d have a mighty dull literature if all the writers that came along were a bunch of happy chuckleheads Picture Quote #1

... had always taken for granted that the whole world was in a state of constantly fluctuating madness, and that a neurosis was not an illness, but a fact of life, like pimples Picture Quote #1
