    “[D]rilling and arming, when carried on on a national scale, excite whole populations to frenzies which end in war.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “During depression the world disappears. Language itself. One has nothing to say. Nothing. No small talk, no anecdotes. Nothing can be risked on the board of talk. Because the inner voice is so urgent in its own discourse: How shall I live? How shall I manage the future? Why should I go on?”
    —Kate Millett (b. 1934)
