Bertrand Russell Quotes 366

Psycho-analysis, as every one knows, is primarily a method of understanding hysteria and certain forms of insanity; but it has been found that there is much in the lives of ordinary men and women which bears a humiliating resemblance to the delusions of the insane. The connection of dreams, irrational beliefs and foolish actions with unconscious wishes has been brought to light, though with some exaggeration, by Freud and Jung and their followers. As regards the nature of these unconscious wishes it seems to me though as a layman I speak with diffidence that many psycho-analysts are unduly narrow; no doubt the wishes they emphasize exist, but others, eg, for honour and power, are equally operative and equally liable to concealment.
