• I met with Hitchcock when I was a very, very young actress just starting out and he was making 'Frenzy' in London and I was sent along to meet with him. He was very, very unimpressed with me and I have to say, I was rather unimpressed with him - but only because I was an arrogant, ignorant young actress.

• Not only did waging war against Hitler fail to save the Jews, it may be that the war itself brought on the Final Solution of genocide. This is not to remove the responsibility from Hitler and the Nazis, but there is much evidence that Germany's anti-Semitic actions, cruel as they were, would not have turned to mass murder were it not for the psychic distortions of war, acting on already distorted minds. Hitler's early aim was forced emigration, not extermination, but the frenzy of it created an atmosphere in which the policy turned to genocide.

• Great pals we've always been. In fact there was a time when I had an idea I was in love with Cynthia. However, it blew over. A dashed pretty and lively and attractive girl, mind you, but full of ideals and all that. I may be wronging her, but I have an idea that she's the sort of girl who would want a fellow to carve out a career and what not. I know I've heard her speak favourably of Napoleon. So what with one thing and another the jolly old frenzy sort of petered out, and now we're just pals. I think she's a topper, and she thinks me next door to a looney, so everything's nice and matey.

• By the cross we, too, are crucified with Christ; but alive in Christ. We are no more rebels, but servants; no more servants, but sons! "Let it be counted folly," says Hooker, "or fury, or frenzy, or whatever else; it is our wisdom and our comfort. We care for no knowledge in the world but this, that man hath sinned, and that God hath suffered; that God has made Himself the Son of Man, and that men are made the righteousness of God."

• La ciencia no sabe de política. ¿Estamos en este frenesí de la economía [de la Depresión], provocado por quienes controlan la riqueza de este país, tratando de poner una barrera a la ciencia y la investigación por la mísera suma de 39.113 dólares de una asignación de 100.000.000 de dólares?

• The current disfavor into which socialism has fallen has spurred.... the frenzy to proclaim oneself a liberal. Many writers today have recourse to the strategem of inventing for oneself a liberalism according to one's own tastes and passing it off as an evolution from past ideas.

• Half way down, he encountered Saphira, who had jammed her head and neck as far up the stair as she could, gouging the wood in her frenzy. Little one. She flicked out her tongue and caught him on the hand with its rough tip. He smiled. Then she arched her neck and tried to pull back, but to no avail. What's wrong? I'm stuck. You're... He could not help it;he laughed even though it hurt. The situation was too absurd.

• Observar a un estadounidense en una playa, o agolpándose en el metro, o comprando una entrada para el teatro, o sentado en casa con la radio encendida, nos dice algo sobre un aspecto del carácter estadounidense: la capacidad de soportar una gran cantidad de interferencias externas, por así decirlo; una aceptación voluntaria del frenesí que, aunque nunca es consciente de sí misma, equivale a una disposición a dejar que otras personas tengan y afirmen su propio carácter vivo, e incluso ofensivo. Son una raza dura en esto.

• La planificación es como el sexo. La trama tiene que ver con el deseo y la satisfacción, la anticipación y la liberación. Hay que despertar en el lector el deseo de saber qué ocurre, de desentrañar el misterio, de ver triunfar el bien. Hay que mantenerlo, mantenerlo caliente, alimentarlo, sólo un poco, no demasiado cada vez, a medida que avanza la historia. Eso se llama suspense. Puede llevar el deseo al frenesí, en cuyo caso estás en buena posición para provocar un clímax maravilloso.

• There is something abominable about cameras, because they possess the power to invent many worlds. As an artist who has been lost in this wilderness of mechanical reproduction for many years, I do not know which world to start with. I have seen fellow artists driven to the point of frenzy by photography.

• It is legitimate to have one's own point of view and political philosophy. But there are people who make anger, rather than a deeply held belief, the basis of their actions. They do not seem to mind harming society as a whole in the pursuit of their immediate objective. No society can survive if it yields to the demands of frenzy, whether of the few or the many.

• War is not two great armies meeting in the clash and frenzy of battle. War is a boy being carried on a stretcher, looking up at God’s blue sky with bewildered eyes that are soon to close; war is a woman carrying a child that has been injured by a shell; war is spirited horses tied in burning buildings and waiting for death; war is the flower of a race, battered, hungry, bleeding, up to its knees in filthy water; war is an old woman burning a candle before the Mater Dolorsa for the son she has given.

• El principal problema de cualquier democracia es que los agradadores de multitudes suelen ser cerdos descerebrados que pueden salir a un escenario y azotar a sus seguidores hasta provocar un frenesí orgiástico, para luego volver a la oficina y vender a cada uno de los pobres bastardos por el tubo por cinco centavos cada uno. Probablemente, la forma más rara de vida en la política estadounidense es el hombre que es capaz de enardecer a una multitud y mantener la cabeza erguida, suponiendo que, para empezar, la tuviera erguida.
