Fear contained in the news can rule your life. I look back and see that often nothing happened except that I took care of my home and family with one eye on the news, and a divided heart!!! A lot of women will regret the time spent on all this drama.

“Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear — kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor — with the cry of grave national emergency… Always there has been some terrible evil to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it by furnishing the exorbitant sums demanded. Yet, in retrospect, these disasters seem never to have happened, seem never to have been quite real.”
