Freud did not lose cool when the Nazis (纳粹分子) came to his house. The Nazi soldiers found 1500 shillings in a drawer. Their officer put the money in his pocket and was about to leave.

"Why " asked the young officer.
"Well," said Freud. "I’ve been a doctor here in Vienna for forty years, and I never got 1500 shillings for just one visit."
