    “Human life in common is only made possible when a majority comes together which is stronger than any separate individual and which remains united against all separate individuals. The power of this community is then set up as “right” in opposition to the power of the individual, which is condemned as “brute force.””
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    “Women, more than all, are the element and kingdom of illusion. Being fascinated, they fascinate.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
