Work and love - these are the basics. Without them there is neurosis.
Theodor Reik
In our civilization men are afraid they will not be men enough and women are afraid they might be considered only women.
Theodor Reik
Even the wisest men make fools of themselves about women and even the most foolish women are wise about men.

Work and love-these are the basics. Without them there is neurosis.
Theodor Reik
It was strange to find that love does not spring from abundance and richness of the ego, but is a way out of inner distress and poverty. We were surprised to discover that our first love is not directed either to another person or to ourselves, but to an imaginary ideal ego, to an image of ourselves as we would like to be. There are stranger discoveries awaiting us the more deeply we grope in the dark and the further we intrude into the secret places of the human heart.
Theodor Reik
He who licks his wounds cannot be affectionate
Theodor Reik
The fear to love reaches sometimes the depth of a panic, resembles sometimes the fear to die.
Theodor Reik
…if you cannot hate you cannot love. If you cannot bite you can not kiss. If you cannot curse you cannot bless. Who cannot be a good hater will be a poor lover.
Theodor Reik
