psychology quotes

• To know oneself, one should assert oneself. Psychology is action, not thinking about oneself. We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die. (Albert Camus) [psychology/action/thinking/personality]
• Idleness is the parent of psychology. (Friedrich Nietzsche) [idleness/psychology]
• A large part of the popularity and persuasiveness of psychology comes from its being a sublimated spiritualism: a secular, ostensibly scientific way of affirming the primacy of spirit over matter. (Susan Sontag) [psychology/being/spirit/matter]
• A writer must always try to have a philosophy and he should also have a psychology and a philology and many other things. Without a philosophy and a psychology and all these various other things he is not really worthy of being called a writer. I agree with Kant and Schopenhauer and Plato and Spinoza and that is quite enough to be called a philosophy. But then of course a philosophy is not the same thing as a style. (Gertrude Stein) [philosophy/psychology/philosophy/psychology]
• The strength of women comes from the fact that psychology cannot explain us. Men can be analyzed, women merely adored. (Oscar Wilde) [women/psychology/men/women]
• I loved making 'Rising Sun'. I got into the psychology of why she liked to get strangled and tied up in plastic bags. It has to do with low self-worth. (Tatjana Patitz) [psychology]
• Usually, the action's moving so fast, you don't get the opportunity to see the psychology, really. (Jake Gyllenhaal) [psychology]
• Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Your normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop-heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. (Johnny Depp) [people/psychology/normal/willpower]
• Jim Thompson understood something about the serial killer before the psychology caught up to it, which is that they are detached to it and they do want to get caught. (Val Kilmer) [psychology]
• “I love exploring psychology and getting inside someone's head or exploring the dynamics of how couples behave, and I would love to continue finding projects where I have the chance to address those kinds of issues. And sometimes there are going to be moments in my life where I will probably want to play some wild or sick character just to shake things up. I can't just be that nice, reserved guy all the time!” (Tobey Maguire) [love/psychology/love/chance]
• By the first week of shooting, you know exactly where your film is heading based on the psychology of your director. (Jodie Foster) [film/psychology/director]
