21 Sigmund Freud Quotes
Sigmund Freud has become widely known as the founding father of psychoanalysis. His research in the field of psychology pioneered some of the most influential and controversial discoveries of the Twentieth Century. We’ve compiled a list featuring 21 of the best Sigmund Freud quotes:
- “Time spent with cats is never wasted.”
- “A woman should soften but not weaken a man.”
- “The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is ‘What does a woman want?'”
- “We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love.”
- “Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise.”
- “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.”
- “Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.”
- “Religion is an illusion and it derives its strength from the fact that it falls in with our instinctual desires.”
- “Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.”

- “Everywhere I go I find a poet has been there before me.”
- “The madman is a dreamer awake.”
- “Words have a magical power. They can bring either the greatest happiness or deepest despair; they can transfer knowledge from teacher to student; words enable the orator to sway his audience and dictate its decisions. Words are capable of arousing the strongest emotions and prompting all men’s actions.”
- “Where does a thought go when it’s forgotten?”
- “The sexual life of adult women is a “dark continent” for psychology.”
- “Beauty has no obvious use; nor is there any clear cultural necessity for it. Yet civilization could not do without it.”

- “Look into the depths of your own soul and learn first to know yourself, then you will understand why this illness was bound to come upon you and perhaps you will thenceforth avoid falling ill.”
- “If you want to live a life, get prepared for death.”

In Loving Memory of Dr. Masaru Emoto
Dr. Masaru Emoto born July 22, 1943 (age 71) passed away peacefully with his wife by his side in Tokyo, Japan early this morning (October 17th, 2014).
His last word was “Arigato”. (“Thank you” in Japanese).
Since he became ill in Shanghai, he has received so much love and gratitude from his dear friends from all over the world. He was very encouraged and happy to receive your kind messages with love.
He used to say, “Life is LOVE which is a gift from God and parents, and DEATH is gratitude for going to a new dimension”. So now he is in another dimension and continues to look over us warmly with love and gratitude.
Most people first heard of Dr. Emoto in 2004 when the hit movie, “What The Bleep Do We Know?” was released. The documentary is about quantum physics and the power of intention. In the documentary, Dr. Emoto’s findings on the transformative influence of intention is demonstrated:
Dr. Emoto’s book “The Hidden Messages in Water” became a New York Times bestseller. This book illustrates his discovery that crystals formed in frozen water reveal changes when specific, concentrated thoughts are directed toward them. He found that water from clear springs and water that has been exposed to loving intention shows vibrant, intricate, and beautiful snowflake patterns. In contrast, polluted water, or water exposed to negative intent, forms broken, asymmetrical patterns with dull colors.
“The words themselves actually emit a unique vibration that the water is sensing. When water is shown a written word, it receives it as vibration, and expresses the message in a specific form, like a visual code for expressing words. Water exposed to words Thank you formed beautiful geometric crystals, no matter what the language. But water exposed to you fool and other degrading words resulted in obviously broken and deformed crystals. When a complete geometric crystal is formed, water is in alignment with nature and the phenomena we call life. The words gratitude and love form the fundamental principles of the laws of nature and the phenomenon of life.”
– Dr. Masaru Emoto
Another one of the most famous and controversial experiments Dr. Masaru Emoto conducted was labeling rice and repeating both negative and positive phrases to them daily such as “Thank you” and “You fool” in Japanese with interesting results. The rice that was thanked was shown to ferment, and the rice that was hated turned black. The rice that was ignored simply rotted.

We will leave you with just a few of the best Masaru Emoto quotes:
“What we imagine in our minds becomes our world.”
“Water has a memory and carries within it our thoughts and prayers. As you yourself are water, no matter where you are, your prayers will be carried to the rest of the world.”

How to Make Pumpkin Seed Milk
A healthy non-dairy milk is quite simple to make from a variety of nuts or seeds. I usually use almonds or pumpkin seeds. Here is the straight forward process I use to make some delicious and creamy pumpkin seed milk:
- Soak the seeds in water over night
- Drain the water the seeds were soaked in
- Blend the seeds with coconut water
- Strain milk with a cheese cloth or paint strainer by squeezing it through much like milking a cow… (You can get paint strainer bags that are perfect for this purpose at the hardware store for dirt cheap.)
- The pumpkin seed pulp that was strained out in step 4 can be mixed with oil, salt and spices to create a mouth watering pate´to dip chips or celery in.
I use the exact same process to make almond milk, and almond pate´is also very tasty. Enjoy!
Note: the coconut water gives it a natural sweetness, although if you use regular water you may want to add some dates or sweetener.
