Is there no way out of the mind?

It is far, far better and much safer to have a firm anchor in nonsense than to put out on the troubled seas of thought.

The mind is not, I know, a highway but a temple, and its doors should not be carelessly left open.

What is outside my mind means nothing to it.

We need strength, we need energy, we need quickness, and we need brain in this country to turn it around.

The brain is an unreliable organ, it is monstrously great, monstrously developed. Swollen, like a goiter.

Sooner or later if the activity of the mind is restricted anywhere, it will cease to function even where it is allowed to be free.

As is the face, so is the mind.

In psychoanalysis nothing is true except the exaggerations.

What the brain does by itself is infinitely more fascinating and complex than any response it can make to chemical stimulation.

Don’t lose your mind unless you have paid for it.

The sleep of reason produces monsters.

Strength of mind is exercise, not rest.
