2024_4_30 “Theories that diseases are caused by mental states and can be cured by willpower are always an index of how much is not understood about the physical terrain of the disease.”
– Susan Sontag, Illness as Metaphor

“Moreover there is a peculiarly modern predilection for psychological explanations of disease, along with everything else. Psychologizing seems to provide control over the experiences and events, like grave illnesses, over which people have in fact, little or no control.”

– Susan Sontag, Illness as Metaphor
