Rebecca Solnit Quotes
Secrecy And Silence Are The Perpetrator's First Line Of Defense. If Secrecy Fails, The Perpetrator Attacks The Credibility Of His Victim. If He Cannot Silence Her Absolutely, He Tries To Make Sure That No One Listens. . . . After Every Atrocity One Can Expect To Hear The Same Predictable Apologies: It Never Happened; The Victim Lies; The Victim Exaggerates; The Victim Brought It On Herself; And In Any Case It Is Time To Forget The Past And Move On. The More Powerful The Perpetrator, The Greater Is His Prerogative To Name And Define Reality, And The More Completely His Arguments Prevail.
