Quotes by Wilfred R. Bion (?)

“Wisdom or oblivion - take your choice. From that warfare there is no release.”
― W. R. Bion

“In psychoanalysis, when approaching the unconscious—that is, what we do not know—we, patient and analyst alike, are certain to be disturbed. In every consulting-room, there ought to be two rather frightened people: the patient and the psychoanalyst. If they are not both frightened, one wonders why they are bothering to find out what everyone knows.”
― Wilfred R. Bion, The Tavistock Seminars

“The first of these uses is in the service of projective identification. In this the patient uses words as things or as split-off parts of himself which he pushes forcibly into the analyst. Typical of the consequences of this behaviour is the experience of a patient who felt he got inside me at the beginning of each session and had to be extricated at the end of it. Language”
― Wilfred R. Bion, Second Thoughts: Selected Papers on Psychoanalysis
