“Anyone who goes to a psychiatrist ought to have his head examined.”

“I never knew anyone, that examined and deliberated about nonsense, who did not believe it before the end of his enquiries.”

“One of the advantages a sister has when arguing with a brother is that she is under no obligation to be tactful. If she wishes to tell him that he is an idiot and ought to have his head examined, she can do so and, going further, can add that it is a thousand pities that no-one ever thought of smothering him with a pillow in his formative years.”

“Take it easy, Norman. When the psychiatrist goes crazy, it's a bad sign.”

“Everyone who wants to know what will happen ought to examine what has happened: everything in this world in any epoch has their replicas in antiquity.”

“A man who goes around with a prophecy-gun ought never to get discouraged: if he will keep up his heart and fire at everything he sees, he is bound to hit something by and by.”
