“The tension of a mysterious danger is even more unbearable than danger itself. People hate the vacuum of an unknown situation. They want security. They even prefer war to the insecure expectation of a war with its threat of enemy surprise. This vague fearful expectation acts on their fantasies. They anticipate all kinds of mysterious dangers; they begin to provoke them. It is the evocation of fear and danger in order to escape the tension of insecurity.” PeopleWantKindWarHateOrderSituationEnemyFantasyAtheismSecurityDangerExpectationsThreatSurpriseAll KindsMysteriousTensionInsecurityFearfulProvokingVagueInsecureUnbearableAnticipateVacuums Author:Joost Meerloo

“When excesses such as lax lending standards become widespread and persist for some time, people are lulled into a false sense of security, creating an even more dangerous situation.
