“The birth of the new constitutes a crisis, and its mastery calls for a crude and simple cast of mind—the mind of a fighter—in which the virtues of tribal cohesion and fierceness and infantile credulity and malleability are paramount. Thus every new beginning recapitulates in some degree man’s first beginning.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

—George Orwell (1903–1950)
“The palsy plagues my pulses”
—Unknown. Tom o’ Bedlam’s Song (l. 37)
