Quote by Sigmund Freud

“we are threatened with suffering from three directions: from our body, which is doomed to decay..., from the external world which may rage against us with overwhelming and merciless force of destruction, and finally from our relations with other men... This last source is perhaps more painful to use than any other. (p77)”

“When you create your myth, the logic is not linear. A lot of things happen in reality from multiple-use sources. You will begin to see things differently, like a "twirling self-resolving energetically wave." You have to see and understand the pattern.”
