Sigmund Freud
I see in life a continual struggle between Eros and the death instinct, the outcome of which seems to me to be indeterminable. […] if I could, I should gladly do as others do and bestow upon mankind a rosy future, and I should find it much more beautiful and consoling if we could count on such a thing. But this seems to me to be yet another instance of illusion (wish fulfillment) in conflict with truth.
[Sigmund Freud, letter to Oskar Pfister, dated 2 July 1930]
