More on Ego
“While personal problems are not overlooked, the analyst keeps an eye on their symbolic aspects, for healing comes only from what leads the patient beyond himself and beyond his entanglement in the ego.”
“There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded.”
“Pain and happiness are simply conditions of the ego. Forget the ego.”

“People that are conceited of their own merit take pride in being unfortunate, that themselves and others may think them considerable enough to be the envy and the mark of fortune.”
“I have not always been wrong. History will bear me out, particularly as I shall write that history myself.”
“What you are to do without me I cannot imagine.”
