Context: It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know.

(1 April 1939)
“When the fires were raging these journalists were pouring fuel on those fires.”
Narendra Modi (1950) Prime Minister of India

Context: What is worse, when I got the matter enquired into by the local police, we found out that it was a small, insignificant structure under a tree which had been damaged a little bit by some crazy individual. But NDTV presented it as an attack on a Hanuman mandir. When the fires were raging these journalists were pouring fuel on those fires.
Hippocrates (-460–-370 BC) ancient Greek physician

Variant translation: What cannot be cured by medicaments is cured by the knife, what the knife cannot cure is cured with the searing iron, and whatever this cannot cure must be considered incurable.
