"

Karl A Menninger

" The voice of the intelligence is drowned out by the roar of fear. It is ignored by the voice of desire. It is contradicted by the voice of shame. It is biased by hate and extinguished by anger. Most of all it is silenced by ignorance. "

Karl A Menninger
" To "know thyself" must mean to know the malignancy of one's own instincts and to know, as well, one's power to deflect it. "

Karl A Menninger
" Unrest of spirit is a mark of life. "

Karl A Menninger
