P110第三段

Despite resistance to change, however, many new ideas do manage totake hold. We might suppose that when they do, those who fought sohard for them would remember the resistance they had to overcome.

Ironically, however, they often forget very quickly. In fact, they some-times display the same fear and insecurity they so deplored in others. Anexample occurred in psychiatry. Sigmund Freud and his followers wereostracized and bitterly attacked for suggesting that sexuality was animportant factor in the development of personality. The hostility towardFreud was so strong, in fact, that his masterwork, The Interpretation ofDreams, was ignored when it was first published in 1900. It took eightyears for six hundred copies of the book to be sold.

尽管拒绝改变，但许多新观点又的确已经扎根了。我们也许会猜想，当这些新思想扎根时，那些曾经为此奋力过的人会铭记这些他们必须克服的抵制。但讽刺的是，他们经常很快就遗忘了。实际上，他们有时表现出和他们强烈谴责的人一样的恐惧和不安。精神病学里有一个例子。西格蒙德·弗洛伊德和他的追随者们曾经因提出性行为是人格发展的重要组成部分的观点而被排斥，收到强烈攻击。这种对弗洛伊德的敌意是很强烈的，事实上，他的杰作，《梦的解析》，在它1900年初次出版的时候被忽视了。八年仅卖出600本。
