From A Life Like Other People's, by Alan Bennett

SELECTED

"None of Freud's patients hovered at pantry doors; Freud's selected patients, I always felt, the ordinary not getting past, or even to, the first consultation because too dull, the final disillusion to have fled across the border into unreason only to find you are as mundane mad as you ever were sane."

Feeling wan,
Tossed Sigmund Freud
Into the void.
