Romain Gary
“La psychanalyse prend aujourd'hui, comme toutes nos idées, une forme aberrante totalitaire ; elle cherche à nous enfermer dans le carcan de ses propres perversions. Elle a occupé le terrain laissé libre par les superstitions, se voile habilement dans un jargon de sémantique qui fabrique ses propres éléments d'analyse et attire la clientèle par des moyens d'intimidation et de chantage psychiques, un peu comme ces racketters américains qui vous imposent leur protection.

Je laisse donc volontiers aux charlatans et aux détraqués qui nous commandent dans tant de domaines le soin d'expliquer mon sentiment pour ma mère par quelque enflure pathologique : étant donné ce que la liberté, la fraternité et les plus nobles aspirations de l'homme sont devenues entre leurs mains, je ne vois pas pourquoi la simplicité de l'amour filial ne se déformerait pas dans leurs cervelles malades à l'image du reste.”
Romain Gary, Promise at Dawn

Sylvia Plath
“I don't know what it is like to not have deep emotions. Even when I feel nothing, I feel it completely”
Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath
“It seems to me more than ever that I am a victim of introspection. If I have not the power to put myself in the place of other people, but must be continually burrowing inward, I shall never be the magnanimous creative person I wish to be. Yet I am hypnotized by the workings of the individual, alone, and am continually using myself as a specimen. I am possessive about time alone...”
Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

Stephen Chbosky
“I think he was especially happy because I used to kiss this boy in the neighborhood a lot when I was
very little, and even though the psychiatrist said it was very natural for little boys and girls to explore
things like that, I think my father was afraid anyway. I guess that's natural, but I'm not sure why.”
Stephen Chbosky

Sylvia Plath
“I crawled between the mattress and the padded bedstead and let the mattress fall across me like a tombstone. It felt dark and safe under there, but the mattress was not heavy enough. It needed about a ton more weight to make me sleep.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
