Quote by Ernst Jünger

“Siempre ocurre que es el puro miedo el que provoca los horrores. Así, quien emprende la huida incita ya con ella misma la persecución; y el hombre que trama maldades se halla al acecho de su víctima cuando advierta en ésta signos de angustia caerá la última barrera. De ahí que sea importante el conservar la presencia de ánimo en los encuentros sospechosos [...] [...] En nuestra condición de humanos disponemos de sellos de soberanía que son difíciles de romper si no los estropeamos nosotros mismos; aun los animales sienten el sortilegio de tales sellos. Lo único que se precisa es saber, que somos invulnerables.”

“For decades, new-energy researchers talked about the possibility of treating a magnet so that its magnetic field would continuously shake or vibrate. On rare occasions, Sweet saw this effect, called self-oscillation, occur in electric transformers. He felt it could be coaxed into doing something useful, such as producing energy. Sweet thought that if he could find the precise way to shake or disturb a magnet's force field, the field would continue to shake by itself. It would be similar to striking a bell and having the bell keep on ringing. Sweet - who said his ideas came to him in dreams - turned for inspiration to his expertise in magnets. He knew magnets could be used to produce electricity, and wanted to see if he could get power out of a magnet by something other than the standard induction process. What Sweet wanted to do was to keep the magnet still and just shake its magnetic field. This shaking, in turn, would create an electric current. One new-energy researcher compares self-oscillation to a leaf on a tree waving in a gentle breeze. While the breeze itself isn't moving back and forth, it sets the leaf into that kind of motion. Sweet thought that if cosmic energy could be captured to serve as the breeze, then the magnetic field would serve as the leaf. Sweet would just have to supply a small amount of energy to set the magnetic field in motion, and space energy would keep it moving.”

“In the 1980s, research on post traumatic stress disorder in Vietnam veterans was regarded as important, noble, and useful. When the same researchers looked at the same problem in children who had been sexually abused, a tremendous controversy ensued a controversy that persists to this day. There were those who disputed the extent and severity of the sexual abuse that had been uncovered.”
