"We are threatened with suffering from three directions: from our own body, which is doomed to decay and dissolution and which cannot even do without pain and anxiety as warning signals; from the external world, which may rage against us with overwhelming and merciless forces of destruction; and finally from our relations to other men. The suffering which comes from this last source is perhaps more painful than any other." Sigmund Freud.

I think Freud may be correct in his assumption. A quote that I feel is fit to follow Freud's assessment is one by Aristotle:
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.”
