Today’s Google Doodle is dedicated to the famous psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud’s 160th birthday. Freud was known for his theories and quotes, so what better way to honor him than with some of his best quotations as well as quotes about him.

4. Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy.
– Sigmund Freud
5. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

7. I have found little that is ‘good’ about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all. That is something that you cannot say aloud, or perhaps even think.
