Security Psychosis - or - Misplaced Fear

It is always possible
to bind together
a considerable number of people
in love,

so long as
there are other people
left over
to receive the manifestations of
their aggressiveness.

-- Sigmund Freud, Civilization and Its Discontents
(quoted in an insightful article found in The Boston Globe)
