Krausert Shows Off Barbara.
Before Krausert left Landau with his wife and her sister, while Barbara was still under arrest, he asked to see Barbara. While he was waiting for her to be brought to him, he got into a dispute with another man who was in the room with him. The man claimed that Inspiration was a sickness arising from nervous infirmity. As Barbara approached, Krausert pointed at her and asked whether she appeared to be a nervous sort. The man fell silent at the sight of her.

Famous quotes containing the words shows and/or barbara:
“One who shows signs of mental aberration is, inevitably, perhaps, but cruelly, shut off from familiar, thoughtless intercourse, partly excommunicated; his isolation is unwittingly proclaimed to him on every countenance by curiosity, indifference, aversion, or pity, and in so far as he is human enough to need free and equal communication and feel the lack of it, he suffers pain and loss of a kind and degree which others can only faintly imagine, and for the most part ignore.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
“Children are extraordinarily precious members of society; they are exquisitely alert, sensitive, and conscious of their surroundings; and they are extraordinarily vulnerable to maltreatment or emotional abuse by adults who refuse to give them the profound respect and affection to which they are unconditionally entitled.”
—Wisdom of the Elders, quoted in Kids Are Worth It, by Barbara Coloroso, ch. 1 (1994)
