Psychiatry

Since this is the age of science, not religion, psychiatrists are our rabbis, heroin is our pork, and the addict is the unclean person.

Thomas Szasz, The Second Sin (New York: 1973), p. 64

Psychiatry

I can't stand feeble, robotic psychiatrists. They give you false drugs and turn you into a zombie.
