    And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword,
    Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord!
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    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)
