“As the strongman exalts in his physical ability, delighting in such exercises as called his muscles into action, so glories the analyst in that moral activity which disentangles. He derives pleasure from even the most trivial occupations bringing his talent into play. He's fond of enigmas, of conundrums, hieroglyphics; exhibiting in his solutions of each a degree of acumen which appears the ordinary apprehension præternatural.” — Edgar Allan Poe
