/lit/ - Literature

>The absolute submission of your editors to the rotten taste of an uncultivated public is the cause of the low levels of American literature and to be sure the anxiousness to make money is at the root of this submission. . . . Had I considered regards like those of your editor from the beginning of my career I am not sure I would not have become known at all neither in America nor in Europe. So we have to drop this business altogether.

Interesting. Do you think pedophiles should repress their desires to not seem ugly and unwanted to other people?

>>10077856
Not what I said though. You seem to feel constantly accused of being homosexual.

I will save you the trouble:
There is nothing interesting, or mysterious, or alarming about serial killers. They are all the exact same vacuous narcissist obsessed with the most base of biological existence.

'The extraordinarily wide distribution of this form of childish "naughtiness" was always known to adults, and it was regarded as a grave sin and severely punished. But please do not ask me how people could reconcile these observations of the immoral inclinations of children – for children do it, as they themselves say, because it gives them pleasure – with the theory of their innate purity and non-sexuality.'

".... But Hannibal, whom I had come to resemble in these respects, had been the favourite hero of my later school-days. Like so many boys of that age, I had sympathized in the Punic Wars not with the Romans but with the Cathagenians. And when in the higher classes I began to understand for the first time what it meant to belong to an alien race, and anti-semitic feelings among the other boys warned me that I must take up a definite position, the figure of the semitic general rose still higher in my esteem... Thus the wish to go to Rome had become in my dream-life a cloak and symbol for a number of other passionate wishes."

"I think nowadays they are… When one thinks that 10 or 12 of the Nobel winners are Jews, and when one thinks of their other great achievements in the sciences and in the arts, one has every reason to think them superior."

"I am, as you know, cured of the last shred of my predilection for the Aryan cause, and would like to take it that if the child turned out to be a boy he will develop into a stalwart Zionist, and if a girl, she will speak for herself. He or she must be dark in any case, no more towheads (blondes). Let us banish all these will-o'-the-wisps."

- Sigismund Schlomo Freud
