<blockquote>The [[whole ]] of [[psychoanalytic ]] [[theory ]] is in fact built up on the [[perception ]] of the [[resistance ]] exerted by the [[patient ]] when we try to make him [[conscious ]] of his [[unconscious]]. The [[objective ]] indication of resistance is that his [[associations ]] stop short or wander far away from the theme that is [[being ]] discussed. He may also become subjectively aware of the resistance by experiencing painful [[feelings ]] when he approaches the theme. But this last indication may be [[absent]].<ref>{{NILP}} Ch. 3</ref></blockquote>

<blockquote>We call all the forces which oppose the [[work ]] of [[cure ]] the patient's "[[resistances]]." The gain from the [[illness ]] is the source of one resistance, and "unconscious [[guilt]]" represents the resistance from the [[Super-Ego]]; this is the most powerful factor, and the one we most [[fear]]. We meet still [[other ]] resistances in the course of the [[treatment]]. If the Ego, in the early period, undertook a [[repression ]] on account of [[anxiety]], that anxiety still [[exists]], and now expresses itself as a resistance if the Ego approaches what is [[repressed]]. It may weIl be imagined that difficulties arise when an [[instinctual ]] [[process]], which has followed a certain path perhaps for decades, is suddenly required to take a new course which has now opened for it. One might call that the resistance of [[the Id]]. The fight against all these resistances is the main work in the treatment, and the task of [[interpretation ]] seems smaIl beside it.<ref>{{QLA}} Ch. 4</ref></blockquote>

<blockquote>The overcoming of resistance is the part of our work which requires the greatest [[time ]] and the greatest trouble.<ref>{{OoPA}} Ch. 6</ref></blockquote>

<blockquote>The fifth type of resistance ... of the [[superego]], the last recognized and the most obscure, but not always the weakest, seems to derive from the [[sense ]] of guilt or [[need ]] of [[punishment]]; it resists any success and hence also recovery through the [[analysis]].<ref>{{PoA}} Ch. 11</ref></blockquote>
