    Power? It’s like a Dead Sea fruit. When you achieve it, there is nothing there.
    —Harold MacMillan (1894–1986)

    Psychobabble is ... a set of repetitive verbal formalities that kills off the very spontaneity, candor, and understanding it pretends to promote. It’s an idiom that reduces psychological insight to a collection of standardized observations, that provides a frozen lexicon to deal with an infinite variety of problems.
    Richard Dean Rosen (b. 1949)
