I'm very interested in how Freud views homosexuality and the other day when I was reading some articles on his thoughts I found some interesting quotes. These are some of my favourite:
1) I do not in the least underestimate bisexuality...I expect it to provide all further enlightenment.
2) Homosexuality is assuredly no advantage, but it is nothing to be ashamed of, no vice, no degredation, it cannot be classified as an illness.
3) Being entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise.
You can go look at all of them. http://www.voicingouropinions.com/2009/05/sigmund-freud-quotes/

I found the second quote to be extremely interesting seeing that homosexuality was still seen as a mental illness by the American Psychiatric Association until 1973. Freud was clearly far ahead of his time.
