Evil is unspectacular and always human,
And shares our bed and eats at our table.

Another quote from the 1930s

One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or of the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
