Sigmund Freud quotes about
Love and work... work and love, that's all there is.
And in the development of mankind as a whole, just as in individuals, love alone acts as a civilizing factor in the sense that it brings a change from egoism to altruism.
Not all men are worthy of love.
The primitive stages can always be re-established; the primitive mind is, in the fullest meaning of the word, imperishable.
Love is a state of temporary psychosis.
My love is something valuable to me which I ought not to throw away without reflection.
Where they love they do not desire and where they desire they do not love.
It is always possible to bind together a considerable number of people in love, so long as there are other people left over to receive the manifestations of their aggressiveness.
The communal life of human beings had . . . a two-fold foundation: the compulsion to work, which was created by external necessity, and the power of love.
The very emphasis of the commandment: Thou shalt not kill, makes it certain that we are descended from an endlessly long chain of generations of murderers, whose love of murder was in their blood as it is perhaps also in ours.
Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.
All that matters is love and work.
Love and work, work and love...that's all there is.
Love and work are the cornerstones of our humanness.
