Mental

Famous quotes containing the word mental:

“Talk ought always to run obliquely, not nose to nose with no chance of mental escape.”
—Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)

“All that remains to the mother in modern consumer society is the role of scapegoat; psychoanalysis uses huge amounts of money and time to persuade analysands to foist their problems on to the absent mother, who has no opportunity to utter a word in her own defence. Hostility to the mother in our societies is an index of mental health.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

“‘Don’t be afraid of me because I’m just coming back home from
the mental hospital—I’m your mother—’”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
