That the alchemists inevitably failed in their audacious attempts doesn't denigrate the power of the crucible as a metaphor for the circumstances that cause an individual to be utterly transformed.

John AvlonA woman can do anything. She can be traditionally feminine and that's all right; she can work, she can stay at home; she can be aggressive; she can be passive; she can be any way she wants with a man. But whenever there are the kinds of choices there are today, unless you have some solid base, life can be frightening.
Barbara WaltersThe things that are reflected back at us, often times, are appealing to a base instinct that's about response as opposed to reflection.

Hank Williams IIIA yet women -good women- frightened me because they eventually wanted your soul, and what was left of mine, I wanted to keep.

It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

In September, 1940, Benjamin died under ambiguous circumstances in the French-Spanish border town of Portbou, while attempting to flee the Nazis.
