I understand Jung’s vague, imprecise notions, but I consider them worthless—a lot of talk without any clear direction. If there has to be a psychiatrist, I should prefer Freud. I do not believe in him, but I love very much his concise style and his original, although rather extravagant, mind.

This comes from an Einstein diary entry from December 1931. In a letter to Freud in 1936, Einstein even said that Freud’s ideas were “in harmony with reality.”
