    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)

    No further evidence is needed to show that “mental illness” is not the name of a biological condition whose nature awaits to be elucidated, but is the name of a concept whose purpose is to obscure the obvious.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    Analysis is more likely to adjust evidence than to adjust itself.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
