Though I take exception with this particular quote--it strikes me a bit as "magical thinking," as though people are not autonomous, but subject to outside control by whoever ever pronounces the proper formula--I want to thank you for posting this. I have heard the name Thomas Szasz before, but really didn't know anything about him. My curiosity drove me to a google search and I'm now reading about him on Wikipedia. He looks like an interesting fellow and I shall have to look into him a bit more. Even if he is wrong on this count.

I love serendipity.
