    The millere was a stout carl for the nones;
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    Freudianism is much more nearly a religion than a science, inasmuch as the relation between analyst and patient has a great deal in common with that between priest and communicant at confessional, and such ideas as the Oedipus complex, the superego, the libido, and the id exert an effect upon the converted which is almost identical with what flows to the devout Christian from godhead, trinity, grace, and immortality.
    Robert Nisbet (b. 1913)

    Her cabined, ample spirit,
    It fluttered and failed for breath.
    Tonight it doth inherit
    The vasty hall of death.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
