Quote of the Day

“Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve.”

- Erich Fromm

Beginning with his first seminal work of 1941, Escape from Freedom (known in Britain as The Fear of Freedom), Fromm's writings were notable as much for their social and political commentary as for their philosophical and psychological underpinnings. Indeed, Escape from Freedom is viewed as one of the founding works of political psychology.
