“it is a federal system of sadistic torture, vivisection, and animal genocide, which has been carried on for decades under the fraudulent guise of respectable medical research. And nobody on the outside knows, or wants to know, or is willing to find out. My parents, my friends, my teachers, wouldnt listen to me, or suggested that if it was bothering me that much I just had to quit the job. Just like that. As if that would have solved anything. As if I could ever live with such cowardice. You can't imagine, or maybe you can, how many people are convinced - without knowing the first thing about it - Animal research is essential. Americans have been hopelessly brainwashed on this issue. The animal rights people, by and large, acknowledge the essential futility of trying to change the system. So they address the smaller issues, fighting for legislation which would provide one extra visit per week to the labs by a custodian of the US dept of agriculture. Or demanding that a squirrel monkey be given an extra 12 square inches in his holding pen, before being led to the slaughter. That sort of thing. For whomever, and whatever it's worth, I hope my little write up is clear. I dont have the guts to do whats necessary. I pray there's someone out there who does. God help all of us.”

“Sa laideur était célèbre dans le quartier, non point tant à cause de son propre physique, qui était plutôt banal, que de celui de son mari. Mr. Evers était irrésistible, il avait cette finesse des traits, cette beauté hollywoodienne qui pouvait rendre timide la plus âgée des mères, et c’étaient les supputations sur les raisons pour lesquelles un homme comme lui avait pu épouser une femme comme elle qui avaient métamorphosé cette malheureusement simplement quelconque en un symbole de laideur pour tout le quartier.”

“Soyons claire: que l'on ne tolère pas la violence sexiste est la moindre des choses, mais gare aux effets de hiérarchisation de ses victimes, qui amène à considérer certaines insultes sexistes comme pires que d'autres parce qu'elles comparent des femmes à d'autres femmes. Une double peine pèse alors sur les TdS (travailleuses de sexe) en particulier, condamnées de tous cotés et cumulant les stigmates liés à leur genre (pour les misogynes) et à leur activité (pour presque tout le monde).”

“The fate of the humanities faculty in the burgeoning world of for-profit higher education is easy to predict, but painful to contemplate. Universities that, by virtue of their very mission, validate economic efficiency and productivity above all else also sanction apathy toward the humanities. (p. 97)”

“Like seeds planted in the depths of our souls, our dreams are at the center of who we really are. Our mission and our right is to nurture them and to allow them to grow. To follow your dreams takes courage, action, persistence, time and patience, but most of all, you must first believe in them. Believing in your dreams means that you trust your aspirations exist for a reason and the reason is your calling. Believing in your dreams means that you hold true that everything is possible and you can manifest the life and experiences you desire. We know that dreaming is a form of planning. We know that everything we enjoy and appreciate around us – every advancement and contribution to society – developed from the commitment, perseverance, and belief in our dreams.”
