"Neurosis is always a substitute for legitimate suffering."

Psychology

"I shall not commit the fashionable stupidity of regarding everything I cannot explain as a fraud. -Psychiatrist Dr. Carl Jung in a 1919 address to the Society for Psychical Research in England."

Only a fool is interested in other people's guilt, since he cannot alter it. The wise man learns only from his own guilt. He will ask himself: Who am I that all this should happen to me? To find the answer to this fateful question he will look into his own heart."
