James Joyce lambasted both Freud and Jung in poem when he called them the Swiss Tweedledum and the Viennese Tweedledee, it was a reference to the split in the Vienna Circle.

This quote is from "The Departed" 2006 written by William Monahan as an adaptation of a joke from the original the Hong Kong produced "Mou gaan dou" 2002 film by Alan Mak and Felix Chong of which it is an English language remake. The original Joke concerns Confucius taking about people from the province having no need for the concept of philosophy.
Neither Freud nor Confucius ever actually said it.

It is however still all to true and a very funny joke
