...diagnose them outside in, priests diagnose them inside out; together they cover all the ground. When one man combines the abilities of both, he can hang out his shingle on the moon. Scores of sick men will then scurry to live on the moon. Should he, like Freud, open his office on Venus, half the world will scurry to live there...
More scientific, more sympathetic to Author Zweig is Sigmund Freud, whose pyscho-analysis makes "comprehensible . . . the voices that exhort us or allure us behind our waking words and our waking consciousness and to whose bidding we generally pay more heed than to that of our recognized will."

Against that opposition he, always a shy man, built the fastness of his Vienna home. Last week, while savants did him homage the world over, he did not emerge from his retreat. Illness was his good excuse. His wife and Anna, the only unmarried one of their six children, would not admit even relatives...
