Ellie Midwood
“I looked at him. He sat in the darkness, with his brows knitted tightly together, as though trying to grasp something, to understand the inconceivable, to pinpoint the moment when everything suddenly got out of control and the point of no return was officially passed by both sides – the future murderers and their victims. The new Reich sorted us into two kinds and now he suddenly found himself among those who held an ax above our miserable heads.”
Ellie Midwood, No Woman's Land

W.E.B. Du Bois
“The price of repression is greater than the cost of liberty. The degradation of men costs something both to the degraded and those who degrade.”
