-"What we call [[happiness]] in the strictest sense comes from the (preferable sudden) satisfaction of needs which have been dammed up to a high degree, and it is from its nature only possible as an episodic phenomenon. When any situation that is desired by the pleasure principle is prolonged, it only produces a feeling of mild contentment. We are so made that we can derive intense enjoyment only from a contrast and very little from a state of things. Thus our possibilities of happiness are already restricted by our constitution. [[Unhappiness]] is much less difficult to experience." --''[[Civilization and Its Discontents]]'' (1930) by Sigmund Freud, tr. James Strachey+[[Love for sale]]<br>

-"Men are not gentle creatures, who want to be loved, who at the most can defend themselves if they are attacked; they are, on the contrary, creatures among whose instinctual endowments is to be reckoned a powerful share of aggressiveness. As a result, their neighbor is for them not only a potential helper or sexual object, but also someone who tempts them to satisfy their aggressiveness on him, to exploit his capacity for work without compensation, to use him sexually without his consent, to seize his possessions, to humiliate him, to cause him pain, to torture and to kill him.

American Gothic (1930) by Grant Wood

"I have heard certain travellers, both American and French, assert roundly that African cannibal stories of to-day are cock-and-bull stories — that there is no cannibalism any longer in West Africa. It may interest them to know that in the districts of Man, Douekue and Guglio alone, a central forest section of the Cote d'Ivoire, Afrique Occidentale Franchise, there have been twenty-six formal convictions in the past five years (accompanied in most cases by final complete confessions), of which seven occurred in the year of Our Lord 1929."--Jungle Ways (1930) by William Seabrook


"Painting has not always existed; we can determine when it began. And if its development and its moments of greatness can be drummed into our heads, can we not then also imagine its periods of decline and even its end, like any other idea?"-- Challenge to Painting (1930) by Louis Aragon, epigraph in "The End of Painting" (1981) by Douglas Crimp


"If the evolution of civilization has such a far-reaching similarity with the development of an individual, and if the same methods are employed in both, would not the diagnosis be justified that many systems of civilization — or epochs of it — possibly even the whole of humanity — have become 'neurotic' under the pressure of the civilizing trends?" --Civilization and Its Discontents (1930) by Sigmund Freud, tr. James Strachey
