En opfordring til, hvordan vi undersøger antisemitisme (og andre fobier). Vi starter med vores egne fordomme.

There is no crime, absolutely none, that cannot be condoned when'our side' commits it. Even if one does not deny that the crime has happened, even if one knows that it is exactly the same crime as one has condemned in some other case, even if one admits in an intellectual sense that it is unjustified - still one cannot feel that it is wrong. Loyality is involved, and so pity ceases to function.

George Orwell, Notes on Nationalism, p. 29

"Og hvad arbejder du så med?" Det er en indledningsreplik, der er lige så almindelig, som den er dum. Ud over at spørgsmålet er uforskammet - hvad skal man svare, hvis man er arbejdsløs, hader sit job eller arbejder med noget, andre synes er frastødende? - så viser det, hvor meget vi lader vores arbejde definere os. Hvad skal vi svar? "Jotak, jeg er stadig på dagpenge," "jeg inseminerer køer - hvad laver du?

Karin Lilja, Gear ned.

Vi har i dag lettere ved at forestille os verdens undergang end en afslutning på kapitalismen som historisk samfundssystem.

It is devilish to suffer from a pain that is all but nameless. Blessed are they who are stricken only with classifiable diseases!

Like all men who have lived much alone, he adjusted himself better to ideas than to people.

Life is hard, Mr. Scoreby, but we cling to it all the same.

Den, der lader sig forføre, ved nemlig godt, påstår han, at det sker, men hun lader som om, det er forføreren, der bærer det fulde ansvar for, hvad der sker.

Kærlighed, Anne Marie Pahuus, s. 51

Desværre hænder det, at de videnskabelige teorier og resultater opfattes som endelige og fyldestgørende forklaringer. Hvilket ingen enkeltvidenskabelig forklaring tåler ret godt.

Kærlighed, Anne Marie Pahuus, s. 22

Memories were permanent. Sorrowful ones remained sad even with the passing of time, yet happy ones could never be re-created with the same joy. Remembering bred its own peculiar sorrow. It seemed so unfair: That time should render sadness and happiness into a source of pain.

I made up three lists: Candidate's Accomplishments (real or imaginary), Accusations Against Opponent (including rumours, allegations, innuendoes, and lies), and Empty Promises (the more improbable the better). Then it was merely a matter of taking various combinations of items from the lists, throwing in some bombast, tossing in a few local references; and there it was - a brand-new speech.
