Do Not Adjust Your Mind, The Fault

The Condition Of Alienation, Of Being Asleep, Of Being Unconscious, Of Being Out Of One’s Mind, Is The Condition Of The Normal Man. Society Highly Values Its Normal Man. It Educates Children To Lose Themselves And To Become Absurd, And Thus To Be Normal. Normal Men Have Killed Perhaps 100,000,000 Of Their Fellow Normal Men In The Last Fifty Years.

A Psychiatrist Who Professes To Be A Healer Of Souls, But Who Keeps People Asleep, Treats Them For Waking Up, And Drugs Them Asleep Again (increasingly Effectively As This Field Of Technology Sharpens Its Weapons), Helps To Drive Them Crazy.

In The Society Of Men The Truth Resides Now Less In What Things Are Than In What They Are Not.

Freud Was A Hero. He Descended To The "underworld" And Met There Stark Terrors. He Carried With Him His Theory As A Medusa's Head Which Turned These Terrors To Stone. We Who Follow Freud Have The Benefit Of The Knowledge He Brought Back With Him And Conveyed To Us. He Survived. We Must See Of We Now Can Survive Without Using A Theory That Is In Some Measure An Instrument Of Defence.

Madness Need Not Be All Breakdown. It May Also Be Break-through.
