As a species we are always hungry for new knowledge. – Chaim Potok

And these two elements are at odds with one another because Freud is utterly adversary to almost all the ways of structuring the human experience found in Western religions. No Western religion can countenance Freuds view of man. – Chaim Potok
But today we become aware of other readings of the human experience very quickly because of the media and the speed with which people travel the planet. – Chaim Potok
