“Whoever loves become humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.”
Wer verliebt ist, ist demütig. Wer liebt, hat sozusagen ein Stück seines Narzißmus eingebüßt.

Kontext: Towards the outside, at any rate, the ego seems to maintain clear and sharp lines of demarcation. There is only one state — admittedly an unusual state, but not one that can be stigmatized as pathological — in which it does not do this. At the height of being in love the boundary between ego and object threatens to melt away. Against all the evidence of his senses, a man who is in love declares that "I" and "you" are one, and is prepared to behave as if it were a fact.
“The voice of the intellect is a soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing.”
1920s, The Future of an Illusion (1927)
Kontext: The voice of the intellect is a soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing. Ultimately, after endlessly repeated rebuffs, it succeeds. This is one of the few points in which it may be optimistic about the future of mankind, but in itself it signifies not a little.
“Immorality, no less than morality, has at all times found support in religion.”

“I will cure all the incurable nervous cases and through you I shall be healthy”
Letter to Martha Bernays, after receiving a travel grant he had been having dreams of receiving (20 June 1885)
1880s
Kontext: Princess, my little Princess,
Oh, how wonderful it will be! I am coming with money and staying a long time and bringing something beautiful for you and then go on to Paris and become a great scholar and then come back to Vienna with a huge, enormous halo, and then we will soon get married, and I will cure all the incurable nervous cases and through you I shall be healthy and I will go on kissing you till you are strong and gay and happy — and "if they haven't died, they are still alive today."
“He that has eyes to see and ears to hear may convince himself that no mortal can keep a secret.”
Fragment of an Analysis of a Case of Hysteria (1905) Ch. 2 : The First Dream
1900s
Zdroj: Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis
Kontext: He that has eyes to see and ears to hear may convince himself that no mortal can keep a secret. If his lips are silent, he chatters with his fingertips; betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.
