Sigmund Freud
Sigmund Freud
“Out of these findings grew a new science, psychoanalysis, a path of psychology, as a new method of treatment of neurosis. I had to pay handily for this bit of good luck. People did not believe in my facts and thought my theories unsavory. Resistance was strong and unrelenting. In the end, I succeeded in leading meetings of an international psychoanalytic association, but the struggle is not yet over.”
Margaret Sanger

V. Youth in Rebellion
Petting and the Campus (1925) “One fact is evident, that whether or not they pet, they
hesitate to have anyone believe that they do not. It is distinctly the mores of the times to be considered as ardently sought after, and as not too priggish to respond. As one girl said, ‘I don’t particularly care to be kissed by some of the fellows I know, but I’d let them do it any time rather than let them think I wouldn’t dare.’ … That petting should lead to actual illicit relations between the petters was not advised nor countenanced among the girls with whom I discussed it. They drew the line quite sharply. That it often did so lead, they admitted, but they were not ready to allow that there were any more of such affairs than there had always been.”
Sigmund Freud
Drinking on Campus (1926)Senator Reed: What are the facts with reference to the ability of
students to obtain liquor?
Mr. Post: Why, it is obtainable, sir; the greater the attempts at enforcement the stronger the sentiment against it.
Senator Reed: Do bootleggers ply their trade among the students?
Mr. Post: Well, it is the reverse; the students go to the bootleggers.
Senator Reed: The students go to the bootleggers?
Mr. Post: Yes; they do not enter the university campus.
Senator Reed: Is there any difficulty of any student of ordinary intelligence – and I presume they are all that at Yale University – getting all the whiskey he wants to buy … ?
Mr. Post: No, sir.
“If You Knew Susie” (1926) “I have got a sweetie known as Susie. In the words
of Shakespeare she’s a ‘wow’. Though all of you may know her too I’d like to shout right now.
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl! Although she gets sassy, I’ll say she’s classy. You can tell I love this lassie. We went riding, she didn’t fall. Back to the city I’m the one that had to walk. If you knew Susie, like I know Susie, Oh! Oh! What a girl!”
