When you face adversity ... dont ask Why does this have to happen to me Why do I have to suffer this, now What have I done to cause this Rather ask What am I to do What am I to learn from this experience What am I to change Whom am I to help How can I remember my many blessings in times of trial.

Haller's sickness of soul, as I now know, is not the eccentricity of a single individual, but the sickness of the times themselves, the neurosis of that generation to which Haller belongs, a sickness, it seems, that by no means attacks the weak and worthless only but rather those who are strongest in spirit and richest in gifts.
Hermann Hesse
Perhaps MacKinnon should reflect on these suggestions that the censorship issue is not so simple-minded, so transparently gender-against-gender, as she insists. She should stop calling names long enough to ask whether personal sensationalism, hyperbole, and bad arguments are really what the cause of sexual equality now needs.
