Dr. Alexander Q. Tower:
In the 13th Century, man was happier and more comfortable in his world than he is now. I'm speaking of psychic man and his relationship with his whole universe. Parris Mitchell:
I get it, sir. Everything was so simple then Dr. Alexander Q. Tower:
That was it, Parris. That was it. But in this modern complicated world, man breaks down under the strain, the bewilderment, disappointment, and disillusionment.
