Freud and reality

by Robert Daeley, Tue, 2006-09-12

"Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces."

-- Sigmund Freud
