The chief motive of all human actions is the desire to avoid anxiety.
Ibn Hazm (994-1064)
“To trace something unfamiliar back to something familiar is at once a relief, a comfort and a Satisfaction, while it also produces a feeling of power. The unfamiliar involves danger, anxiety and care -the fundamental instinct is to get rid of these painful circumstances. First principle - any explanation is better than none at all.” (Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900)
