“Đặt liên tiếp nhiều ý với nhau không phải là lý luận, nếu giữa những ý đó không có sự liên lạc chặt chẽ. Muốn làm thành một dây xúc xích không phải cứ để khoen nọ kế khoen kia là đủ, mà phải móc chúng vào nhau. Các nhà "hùng biện" rất hay dùng thuật chắp càn ấy để làm mê hoặc thính giả; nghe họ ta tưởng họ có lí lắm, mà về nhà, nếu được đọc bài diễn văn của họ thì mới thấy từ đầu chí cuối chỉ là một đống gạch vụn. Họ nói huyên thuyên, bàn về vấn đề xuất cảng gạo, về chính thể dân chủ, về giáo dục, ngoại giao ... rồi kết luận rằng ... mọi người phải hi sinh cho Tổ quốc.”

“[Neurotic] pride is both so vulnerable and so precious that it also must be protected in the future. The neurotic may build an elaborate system of avoidances in the hope of circumventing future hurts. This too is a process that goes on automatically. He is not aware of wanting to avoid an activity because it might hurt his pride. He just avoids it, often without even being aware that he is. The process pertains to activities, to associations with people, and it may put a check on realistic strivings and efforts. If it is widespread it can actually cripple a person's life. He does not embark on any serious pursuits commensurate with his gifts lest he fail to be a brilliant success. He would like to write or to paint and does not dare to start. He does not dare to approach girls lest they reject him. [...] He withdraws from social contacts lest he be self-conscious. So, according to his economic status, he either does nothing worthwhile or sticks to a mediocre job and restricts his expenses rigidly. In more than one way he lives beneath his means. In the long run this makes it necessary for him to withdraw farther from others, because he cannot face the fact of lagging behind his age group and therefore shuns comparisons or questions from anybody about his work. In order to endure life he must now entrench himself more firmly in his private fantasy-world. But, since all these measures are more a camouflage than a remedy for his pride, he may start to cultivate his neuroses because the neurosis with a capital N then becomes a precious alibi for the lack of accomplishment.”
