"Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces"

Sigmund Freud's quote talks with the power of illusions and also just how they can be valuable to us. Illusions can aid us prevent discomfort and enable us to take pleasure in satisfaction, but they can likewise be dangerous when they enter contact with fact. Freud is cautioning us that when our impressions are shattered by truth, we should accept it without problem. He is suggesting that illusions can be reassuring, but they can also be deceptive as well as can lead us astray. We should be aware of the power of impressions and also be planned for when they come into call with reality. We need to approve the effects of our illusions and not be too let down when they are dashed to items.
