Hebrew Christian

Famous quotes containing the words hebrew and/or christian:

    Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity.
    —Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes, 1:2 passim.

    Freudianism is much more nearly a religion than a science, inasmuch as the relation between analyst and patient has a great deal in common with that between priest and communicant at confessional, and such ideas as the Oedipus complex, the superego, the libido, and the id exert an effect upon the converted which is almost identical with what flows to the devout Christian from godhead, trinity, grace, and immortality.
    Robert Nisbet (b. 1913)
