Famous quotes containing the words bruce and/or campbell:

    The liberals can understand everything but people who don’t understand them.
    —Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)

    Unlike Freud, Jung did not believe that a dream is a mask for a meaning already known but deceitfully withheld from the conscious mind. In his view, dreams were communication, ideas expressed not always straightforwardly, but in the best way possible within the limits of the medium. Dreaming, in Jung’s psychology, is a constructive process.
    —Jeremy Campbell (b. 1931)
