"Everybody talks, but there is no conversation."
"Words, they say, are the food of minds. But, like other foods, they can do little by themselves."
"The chief deficiency I see in the skeptical movement is its polarization: Us vs. Them - the sense that we have a monopoly on the truth; that those other people who believe in all these stupid doctrines are morons; that if you're sensible, you'll listen to us; and if not, to hell with you. This is nonconstructive. It does not get our message across. It condemns us to permanent minority status."
"The longer a person's twitter @username is, the harder it is to argue with them - on twitter."
"If one is talking about a vile thing it is better to talk of it in coarse language, one is less likely to be seduced into excusing it."

"The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place."
"I'll tell you a piece of news - I hope you have not heard it before: for good, bad, or indifferent, one always likes to be the first to tell."
"All the good stuff has already been said by someone somewhere at some point in time. You just have to find it. Today, communication pretty much comes down to understanding - saying what you have to say clearly and effectively...and then living it."
"Be careful what you say and do around a writer, your words and actions may become material."

"The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind."
"The behavior of a human being in sexual matters is often a prototype for the whole of his other modes of reaction in life."
"Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways."
"Instinct of love toward an object demands a mastery to obtain it, and if a person feels they can't control the object or feel threatened by it, they act negatively toward it."
"Our possibilities of happiness are already restricted by our constitution. Unhappiness is much less difficult to experience. We are threatened with suffering from three directions: from our own body, which is doomed to decay and dissolution and which cannot even do without pain and anxiety as warning signals; from the external world, which may rage against us with overwhelming and merciless forces of destruction; and finally from our relations to other men. The suffering which comes from this last source is perhaps more painful to us than any other."
