'Psychological laws, just like other scientific laws, are not orders but descriptions. Our misconception of the nature of a scientific law is caused by a logical misunderstanding and by our attitude. The anthropomorphic use of language and science has caused the logical misunderstanding. Our psychological need for a creator and protector, a powerful being forcing a certain security-giving order of things, has caused our inability to see the logical error. Psychological laws make us neither free nor slave, but they help us to understand why we feel free or slave.'
