The longer these tendencies are retained in adult life, the greater
the danger of their becoming coercive; and so far as the
well-established case is concerned the obsessive act must be
performed, though the business, social, and political world should
come to a stand-still. Among the stories told in illustration of
compulsive tendency in the great, may be instanced the touching of
posts, and the placing of a certain foot first, in the case of Dr.
Johnson, who, it appears, would actually retrace his steps and
repeat the act which failed to satisfy his requirements, with the
air of one with something off his mind.
