“Euripides seems to have felt that the dignified perfection of Sophocles could be challenged only by novelty and irresponsibility. The religious conditions of the Dionysian festival kept him within certain bounds. But within the imposed limits Euripides was as profane as he dared to be, making melodrama of the divine realities which his predecessors accepted religiously, using the stage merely as a convenience for popularizing his own eccentric values.” RealitySeemsCertainValuesFeltReligiousConditionsStageDivineLimitsPerfectionBoundsAcceptedFestivalsNoveltyConvenienceEccentricPredecessorsProfaneMelodramaIrresponsibility Author:Laura Riding

“To repress rebellion is to maintain the status quo, a condition which binds the mortal creature in a state of intellectual or physical slavery. But it is impossible to chain man merely by slaving his body; the mind also must be held, and to accomplish this, fear is the accepted weapon. The common man must fear life, fear death, fear God, fear the Devil, and fear most the overlords, the keepers of his destiny.” MenMindStatesBodyCommonDestinyImpossibleConditionsCreaturesWeaponsIntellectualDevilSlaveryAccomplishAcceptedChainsMortalsRebellionStatus QuoFear Of DeathKeepersCommon ManFear God Author:Manly Hall
“Of course we in Europe also have epidemic, structural sexual violence. Violence is always the dark core of dominance. The men who are now coming to us from Islamic cultural circles are, of course, shaped by conditions there, which are still much more antiquated than here. That's a problem that we have ignored for far too long. In the name of a false tolerance, we have accepted that women are kept at home like prisoners and are forcibly married.” MenLongStillsProblemHomeCoursesNamesDarkViolenceConditionsHe ManMarriedEuropeAcceptedCoreToleranceCirclesIslamicPrisonerIgnoredEpidemicsDominance Author:Alice Schwarzer
