When people think about a placebo such as the royal touch, they usually dismiss it as just psychology. But, there is nothing just about the power of a placebo, and in reality it represents the amazing way our mind controls our body.
~ Dan Ariely
I find placebos uplifting and exhilarating. It means that taking action--no matter what the action is--might help you feel better.
~ A.j. Jacobs
