Quote by Marie Benedict

“It is in these moments that I wonder--despite my love of and commitment to science--if I have chosen the right track.

Do I owe it to them to carry on the Franklin traditions in their name?”

[...] Antes de que los vecinos se acusaran entre sí [...] tuvo lugar un adoctrinamiento sostenido en el que las autoridades expresaron públicamente su preocupación por la propagación de las brujas y viajaron de aldea en aldea para enseñarle a la gente a reconocerlas [...] llevando consigo listados de mujeres sospechosas de ser brujas y amenazando con castigar a quienes les dieran asilo o les brindaran ayuda.”
