"I do not know anyone who has ever benefited from Freudian or any other mode of analysis, except by being, to use the popular trope for it, so badly shrunk, that they become quite dried out. That is to say, all passion spent. Perhaps they become better people, but they also become stale and uninteresting people with very few exceptions. Like dried-out cheese, or wilted flowers." Χάρολτντ Μπλουμ, ο καλύτερος κριτικός λογοτεχνίας της εποχής μας από συνέντευξή του στο Paris Review
