“To most Liberals, the concept of political ideology was both alien and abhorrent. Liberalism rejected the rule of dogma and absolutes in politics; it refused to believe that unswerving doctrine should or could be translated into policy. It therefore attempted, in the thirties, to dismiss the notion that Germany under Hitler was in fact governed by the ideology and precepts embodied in Mein Kampf. Even years of Hitlerite persecution at home and Nazi aggression abroad failed to convince many that here indeed was an ideology on the path of fulfilment. No doubt, the refusal of many Britons to admit this stemmed in some measure from a realization of the consequences if it were indeed true: if Nazi ideology was as malign as its detractors contended, and was being enacted, then the prospects for Europe were indeed bleak.”

“تغيَّرت الصورة قليلاً في الفترة من 1932 – 1944 إذ هاجر 265 ألف يهودي، وهو أعلى رقم بلغته أفواج المهاجرين أثناء الانتداب. وهذا لا يعود إلى العروق الأزلية إياها، وإنما إلى وصول هتلر إلى السلطة، ولذا قال أحدهم إنه إذا كان هرتزل هو ماركس الحركة الصهيونية، أي منظّرها، فإن هتلر هو لينين الصهيونية، أي من وضعها موضع التنفيذ.”

“Somehow the disorder hooks into all kinds of fears and insecurities in many clinicians. The flamboyance of the multiple, her intelligence and ability to conceptualize the disorder, coupled with suicidal impulses of various orders of seriousness, all seem to mask for many therapists the underlying pain, dependency, and need that are very much part of the process. In many ways, a professional dealing with a multiple in crisis is in the same position as a parent dealing with a two-year-old or with an adolescent's acting-out behavior. (236)”

“In shadows deep, I tread once more; a whispered wish to close the door. Yet when the light breaks through the night, I still ponder the fading fight. Oh, Jesus, embrace me now. This, I do not desire, not in the least. The Akathisia, a relentless tide, and the long, weary battle with withdrawal's grip have shattered my spirit and left me undone, and now, I choose to close this chapter To find peace in the silence that follows.”

“The highest quality of an individual is to be human. The phrase “to be human” means to follow life wherever it may lead, up and down, down and up, from the bottom of the world to the top, from darkness into light, through each degree of good and evil. As the circle of knowledge widens, life grows more beautiful and heroic. We are part of everything—men, books, cities, railroads—all made from the same atoms and molecules, all living together and dying together, joined into one imperishable unity that can never be divided.”
