Psychosis/history

Famous quotes containing the words psychosis and/or history:

    “My safe, safe psychosis is broken.
    It was hard.
    It was made of stone.
    It covered my face like a mask.
    But it has cracked.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
