“As a medium of exchange,... worrying regulates intimacy, and it is often an appropriate response to ordinary demands that begin to feel excessive. But from a modernized Freudian view, worrying—as a reflex response to demand—never puts the self or the objects of its interest into question, and that is precisely its function in psychic life. It domesticates self-doubt.”
—Adam Phillips, British child psychoanalyst. “Worrying and Its Discontents,” in On Kissing, Tickling, and Being Bored, p. 58, Harvard University Press (1993)
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism....

—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“You don’t need a Harvard MBA to know that the bedroom and the boardroom are just two sides of the same ballgame.”
—Stephen Fry (b. 1957)
“It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
