• It may seem to your conceited to suppose that you can do anything important toward improving the lot of mankind. But this is a fallacy. You must believe that you can help bring about a better world. A good society is produced only by good individuals, just as truly as a majority in a presidential election is produced by the votes of single electors. Everybody can do something toward creating in his own environment kindly feelings rather than anger, reasonableness rather than hysteria, happiness rather than misery.

  Bertrand Russell

  Believe, Conceited, Creating

• Es subversivo establecer inquisiciones como ésta, estatales o nacionales, sobre los pensamientos y las conciencias de los estadounidenses. . . . Es subversivo que comisiones como ésta extiendan la histeria y la intimidación por todo el país para que los estadounidenses tengan miedo de firmar peticiones, miedo de leer revistas progresistas, miedo de extender cheques para causas liberales, miedo de unirse a organizaciones, miedo de decir lo que piensan sobre cuestiones públicas. Los estadounidenses no se atreven a ser ciudadanos libres. Esto es la destrucción de la democracia.

• In the early 1940s, as a young teenager, I was utterly appalled by the racist and jingoist hysteria of the anti-Japanese propaganda.

• I first read Freud's famous case study on hysteria based on his client Ida Bauer when I was in my twenties. It pissed me off so badly it haunted me for 25 years. But I had to wait to be a good enough writer to give Ida her voice back. And I had to go get my own first too. I not only know the case study inside and out, like most women, I lived a version of it. Maybe it's time for us to tell our versions.
