Destructive Functions

Famous quotes containing the words destructive and/or functions:

    [U]nless a woman is held, by man, safe within the bounds of belief, she becomes inevitably a destructive force.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Let us stop being afraid. Of our own thoughts, our own minds. Of madness, our own or others’. Stop being afraid of the mind itself, its astonishing functions and fandangos, its complications and simplifications, the wonderful operation of its machinery—more wonderful because it is not machinery at all or predictable.
    Kate Millett (b. 1934)
