But unhappily life isn't organized as logically as that.

"What's a psychosomologist?" "A baffled little physician. The Freudian personalization of every ache and pain is the crudest weapon to have been bequeathed to these guys since the leech pot. If pain were only the expression of something else, it would all be hunky-dory. But unhappily life isn't organized as logically as that. Pain is in addition to everything else. There are hysterics, of course, who can mime any disease, but they constitute a far more exotic species of chameleon than the psychosomologiets lead all you gullible sufferers to believe. You are no such reptile. Case dismissed."
