(ll. 404-452) Again, Phoebe came to the desired embrace of Coeus. Then the goddess through the love of the god conceived and brought forth dark-gowned Leto, always mild, kind to men and to the deathless gods, mild from the beginning, gentlest in all Olympus. Also she bare Asteria of happy name, whom Perses once led to his great house to be called his dear wife. And she conceived and bare Hecate whom Zeus the son of Cronos honoured above all. He gave her splendid gifts, to have a share of the earth and the unfruitful sea. She received honour also in starry heaven, and is honoured exceedingly by the deathless gods.
For to this day, whenever any one of men on earth offers rich sacrifices and prays for favour according to custom, he calls upon Hecate.
Great honour comes full easily to him whose prayers the goddess receives favourably, and she bestows wealth upon him; for the power surely is with her.
For as many as were born of Earth and Ocean amongst all these she has her due portion. The son of Cronos did her no wrong nor took anything away of all that was her portion among the former Titan gods: but she holds, as the division was at the first from the beginning, privilege both in earth, and in heaven, and in sea. Also, because she is an only child, the goddess receives not less honour, but much more still, for Zeus honours her. Whom she will she greatly aids and advances: she sits by worshipful kings in judgement, and in the assembly whom she will is distinguished among the people. And when men arm themselves for the battle that destroys men, then the goddess is at hand to give victory and grant glory readily to whom she will. Good is she also when men contend at the games, for there too the goddess is with them and profits them: and he who by might and strength gets the victory wins the rich prize easily with joy, and brings glory to his parents. And she is good to stand by horsemen, whom she will: and to those whose business is in the grey discomfortable sea, and who pray to Hecate and the loud-crashing Earth-Shaker, easily the glorious goddess gives great catch, and easily she takes it away as soon as seen, if so she will. She is good in the byre with Hermes to increase the stock. The droves of kine and wide herds of goats and flocks of fleecy sheep, if she will, she increases from a few, or makes many to be less. So, then. albeit her mother's only child (17), she is honoured amongst all the deathless gods. And the son of Cronos made her a nurse of the young who after that day saw with their eyes the light of all-seeing Dawn. So from the beginning she is a nurse of the young, and these are her honours.
So, Be Afraid - but Be Afraid of the Right Things...
"Without debate, without criticism, no Administration and no country can succeed--and no republic can survive.
That is why the Athenian lawmaker Solon decreed it a CRIME for ANY CITIZEN to shrink from controversy.
And that is why our press was protected by the FIRST Amendment-- the ONLY business in America specifically protected by the Constitution- -not primarily to amuse and entertain, not to emphasize the trivial and the sentimental, not to simply "give the public what it wants"--but to inform, to arouse, to reflect, to state our dangers and our opportunities, to indicate our crises and our choices, to lead, mold, educate and sometimes even ANGER public opinion."
Of course, there's the added difficulty, more ammunition for our enemies, that all of us here in Vienna, in our psychoanalytical circle, are Jews.
C.G. Jung
I don't see what difference that makes.
Freud:
That, if I may say so, is an exquisitely Protestant remark.
When I left the hospital
and moved out here...
I was afraid it would take years...
to build up a roster of patients,
but... I'm already under siege.
Anyway, I don't see why
a little more work...
won't make your dissertation
eminently publishable.
You think we'd be able
to work on it together without...?
It's always going to be
something of a risk, us seeing one another.
Yes.
But I believe we have the character
to be able to deal with the situation,
don't you?
I hope so.
I somehow imagined you'd have found
another admirer by now.
No.
You were the jewel of great price.
Shall we say this time next Tuesday?
And I'll start gently
ripping you to shreds.
Explain this analogy you make between
the sex instinct and the death instinct.
Professor Freud claims that...
the sexual drive arises
from a simple urge towards pleasure.
If he's right, the question is why is this
urge so often successfully repressed?
You used to have a theory involving
the impulse towards destruction...
and self-destruction,
losing oneself.
Well, suppose we think of sexuality
as fusion, losing oneself,
as you say, but...
losing oneself in the other,
in other words,
destroying one's own individuality.
Wouldn't the ego, in self-defense,
automatically resist that impulse?
You mean for selfish
not for social reasons?
Yes.
I'm saying, that perhaps true sexuality
demands the destruction of the ego.
In other words, the opposite
of what Freud proposes.
When I graduate,
I've decided to leave Zurich.
I have to.
Why?
You know why.
It's true.
I'm nothing but a..
philistine Swiss bourgeois...
complacent coward.
I want to leave everything...
break away and disappear with you.
Then comes the voice of the philistine.
Where will you go?
Vienna, maybe.
Please don't go there.
I must go
wherever I need to feel free.
Don't.
You know your paper...
led to one of the most stimulating
discussions we've ever had...
at the Psychoanalytic Society.
Do you really think the sexual drive
is a demonic and destructive force?
Yes, at the same time as being
a creative force, in the sense that...
it can produce, out of the destruction
of two individualities, a new being.
The individual must
always overcome resistance...
because of the self-annihilating
nature of the sexual act.
Hm.
I fought against the idea
for some time,
I suppose
there must be some kind of...
indissoluble link
between sex and death.
I don't think the relationship
between the two...
is quite the way you've portrayed it.
I'm most grateful to you for animating
the subject in such a stimulating way.
The only slight shock was
your introduction,
at the very end of your paper,
of the name of Christ.
Are you... completely opposed
to any kind of...
religious dimension in our field?
In general, I don't care if a man believes
in Rama, Marx or Aphrodite,
as long as he keeps it out
of the consulting room.
Is that what's at the bottom
of your dispute with Dr. Jung?
I have no dispute with Dr. Jung.
I was simply mistaken about him.
I thought he was going to be able to
carry our work forward after I was gone.
I didn't bargain for all that second-rate
mysticism and self-aggrandizing shamanism.
Nor did I realize he could be
so brutal and sanctimonious.
He's trying to find
some way forward...
so that we don't just have to tell
our patients,
"This is why you are the way you are.
He wants to be able to say, "We can show
you what it is you might want to become".
Playing God, in other words.
We have no right to do that.
The world is as it is.
Understanding and accepting that
is the way to psychic health.
What good can we do if our aim is simply
to replace one delusion with another?
Well, I agree with you.
Hm.
I've noticed that in the crucial areas
of dispute between Dr. Jung and myself,
you tend to favour me.
I thought you had no dispute with him.
Hm.
You still love him.
That's not why I'm pleading his cause.
I...
I... I just... feel that if you two
don't find some way to co-exist,
it will hold back the progress of
psychoanalysis, perhaps indefinitely.
Is there no way to avert a rupture?
Correct scientific... relations
will be maintained, of course.
I'll be seeing him
at the editorial meeting in Munich...
in September
and I shall be perfectly civil.
To tell you the truth, what finished him
for me was all that business about you.
The lies, the ruthless behaviour.
I was very shocked.
I think he loved me.
I'm afraid your idea of a
mystical union with a blond Siegfried...
was inevitably doomed.
Put not your trust in Aryans.
We're Jews, my dear Miss Spielrein,
and Jews we will always be.
Now, the real reason
I invited you here this evening...
was to ask if you'd be prepared
to take on one or two of my patients?
I was interested in what you said
about monotheism...
that it arose historically out of
some kind of patricidal impulse.
Yes.
Akhnaton, who as far as we know,
was the first...
to put forth the bizarre notion
that there was only one God.
Also had his father's name erased and
chiseled out of all public monuments.
That's not strictly true.
Not true?
No.
You mean,
it was most probably a myth?
No. I mean there were two perfectly
straightforward reasons...
for Akhnaton, or Amenhopis the IV
as I prefer to call him,
to excise his father's name
from the cartouches.
First... this was something
traditionally done...
by all new kings
who didn't wish their father's name...
to continue to be public currency.
In much the same way as your article in
the Yearbook, fails to mention my name?
Your name is so well-known it hardly
seemed necessary to mention it.
Do go on. Secondly, Amenhopis only struck out
the first half of his father's name,
Amenhotep, because,
like the first half of his own name,
it was shared by Amon. One of the gods
he was determined to eliminate. Hm. As simple as that?
The explanation
doesn't seem to me unduly simple.
And do you think your man,
whatever you call him,
felt no hostility whatsoever
toward his father? I have no means of proof,
of course.
For all I know, Amenhopis may have thought
that his father's name familiar enough...
and that now it might be time
to make a name for himself. How sweet...
it must be to die. "If I may say so, dear Professor,
you make the mistake"...
"of treating your friends
like patients".
"This enables you to reduce them
to the level of children",
"so that their only choice is to become
obsequious nonentities"...
"or bullying enforcers of the party line,
while you sit on the mountaintop",
"the infallible father-figure and nobody dares to pluck you by the beard and say",
"Think about your behaviour and then
decide which one of us is the neurotic".
"I speak as a friend". Hm. "Your letter cannot be answered. Your claim, that I treat my friends
like patients is self-evidently untrue As to which of us is the neurotic,
I thought we analysts were agreed... a little neurosis was nothing whatever to be ashamed of. But a man like you,
who behaves quite abnormally... and then stands there
shouting at the top of his voice... how normal he is, does give
considerable cause for concern". For a long time now, our relationship
has been hanging by a thread". And a thread, moreover, mostly consisting
of past disappointments We have nothing to lose
by cutting it. You will be the best judge
of what this moment means to you. "The rest is silence".
Chorus: B'nai B'rith networks will have a devastating impact on the culture of the twentieth century. Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, will be a leading member of the B'nai B'rith lodge in Vienna, Austria, during the twilight of the Hapsburg Empire. Freud later will cordially thank the members of that lodge for their support during his arduous early years in psychoanalysis. Indeed, several members of the lodge will provide the initiating cadre who along with Freud will found the quackery of psychoanalysis. This Freud will be a charlatan and a cabbalist. The anti-Semitism of Freud and of B'nai B'rith as an organization of British intelligence at the expense of Jews will be perhaps most clearly documented in Freud's last major work Moses and Monotheism. His hatred for creativity and the human mind will be documented in his essay on Leonardo da Vinci, in which he will assert, on the basis of no evidence whatsoever, that Leonardo was a homosexual.
Later, the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research will be founded with the program of merging Marx with Freud. One of the pillars of the Frankfurt School will be Max Horkheimer. After the Second World War, Horkheimer will be instrumental in re-founding and reorganizing B'nai B'rith in Frankfurt. The Frankfurt School will provide the matrix for the youth culture and counterculture of the postwar decades in the same way that Mazzini, the high priest of romanticism, has used his youth cults to shape the first half of the nineteenth century.
[Note to the reader: The author wishes to point out that in his conference presentation, transcribed below, he was acting out a caricature of a session with a Frankfurt School-trained psychoanalyst, and that the views he expresses are therefore by no means his own. The author also pointed out, during a later question-and-answer period, that there are many other forms of psychological aid which are of great therapeutic value.]
So, tell me: About how long have you been feeling depressed? ...
Okay, we can come back to that later. If you are going to undergo psychoanalysis with me, perhaps it might be better if I started, and told you how I go about things. I'm not really a strict Freudian psychoanalyst, you know—almost nobody is a strict Freudian these days. But, that is not to say that the old boy doesn't have his influence. It's amazing, you know: Sigmund Freud's scientific credibility was nearly destroyed, but right after World War II, his ideas became the most widely discussed topic in America. Do you know why he became so popular? Because he said that it was okay to be a pessimist; he proved that if you were unhappy, it was okay, and it wasn't your fault.
And, I can't help noticing that you, personally, don't appear very pessimistic; as a matter of fact, you look rather optimistic. Too much optimism is how a lot of people get depressed: They think they can solve the problems of the whole world; all they have to do is get people to act rationally. If you put too much faith in the power of reason, you are going to fail, and you are just going to make yourself depressed. Sigmund Freud understood that—that down deep, people aren't reasonable. That is why my old teacher Erich Fromm back in 1970 said that psychoanalysis was really "the science of human irrationality."
Anyway, this optimism stuff is 130 years out of date. Let me see if I can remember that poem:
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.
Now, that is pessimism: Matthew Arnold, "Dover Beach," 1859. And you know, people didn't generally write poetry that pessimistic before 1859. That, by the way, is the same year that Charles Darwin published The Origin of Species, the book that really got people to look at the human race realistically. Most people think that Darwin's book is devoted to evolution. Not really; as a matter of fact, Darwin didn't even use the word "evolution" in that first edition. The full title tells it all: On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection; or, the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life. Darwin got people to realize that life is not progress or development, but an endless struggle; you can't be optimistic, because how things turn out is not a question of morality, or a divine plan; it's a question of biology—over which you and I have very little control.
Thomas Huxley, Darwin's good friend, said it best: "I know of no study which is so utterly saddening as that of the evolution of humanity. Man emerges with the marks of his lowly origin strong upon him. He is a brute, only more intelligent than other brutes, a blind prey to impulses ... a victim to endless illusions, which make his mental existence a burden, and fill his life with barren toil and battle."
This stuff changed the world back in the 1860s and '70s; everybody had to explain the universe in terms of Darwin. Even Hermann Helmholtz, the mechanist physicist, told his colleagues that the "struggle for existence" was "the highest principle of explanation, in the face of which not even the molecules ... and the stars in heaven are safe." And Sigmund Freud said that the two most important influences on him were Charles Darwin and Hermann Helmholtz. He even tried to study with Huxley in London and with Helmholtz in Berlin.
Below-the-belt identity
You see, what Freud did, was take the blind, mechanical forces of biology described by Darwin, and show that they operated on the mind. For instance, some people get the idea that they can help the whole human race; but, Freud told everybody that this was an illusion, like religion. Freud realized that, if you get the idea that you can help all humanity survive and grow, that this idea is actually your own desire to survive and reproduce—your own individual sexual urges—channeled (what we call "sublimated") into a more socially acceptable form.
Look at Freud's case history of Leonardo da Vinci—maybe the greatest combination of artist and scientist of all time. You think Leonardo was moved by some higher purpose? No way—it's sex! It's always sex. Freud said: Sex starts even before you're born; right from the start, you are biologically impelled to explore the physical world; that's where you get your ideas, from groping around in the world of the senses.
For centuries people thought that this erotic groping around was a bad thing. Freud helped us understand that this was natural—that you have these erotic instinctual drives, these irrational little demons inside you, and you can't do that much about it. For most people, this eroticism becomes totally inhibited by religion, or by some other cultural problem; or it gets repressed by childhood experiences and transformed into various kinds of neuroses.
But Freud said that the reason why Leonardo was such a genius, was that he was one of those rare individuals whose erotic drives became perfectly sublimated; according to Freud, Leonardo effectively never grew up (somewhat like Michael Jackson); and scientific and artistic investigation became Leonardo's substitute for sexual activity. As old Sigmund said, Leonardo became a complete narcissist, "the ideal homosexual type."
Homosexual? No, psychoanalysis understands that homosexuality is not really a perversion; it is just one of the healthy ways of dealing with the irrational drives within us all. Anyway, Freud said that all human beings are naturally bisexual.
I see that you are somewhat afraid of this subject; perhaps you have never dealt with your own homosexual urges. Don't worry: We can deal with that problem later on in your therapy.
You have got to be realistic. It is absurd to worry about universal truths; the only universals are these mechanical forces in your brain and in your pants. And, each person comes up with his or her own, more or less successful way of reconciling these forces with the experiences that you receive in the course of growing up. Why, the whole history of social science—from Freud and almost every psychologist, plus almost all of sociology, and almost all of anthropology—is one great effort to prove that you can't judge a truth in terms of all mankind; truth is all relative to the individual. And what is more, you have to accept that your mind is not truly free: Biology means that you can never completely control those erotic little demons inside you. So, don't set your sights unrealistically high: The only thing you can hope to discover—with the help of professionals like me—is how to be well-adjusted.
Origins of the Frankfurt School
Well, of course, I can't prove it!
Psychoanalysis cannot clinically prove that the unconscious, the id, dream analysis, the Oedipus complex, or any important Freudian concept really exists. Freud said that psychoanalysis is like a religion: You can't prove it, but you accept it on faith. As a matter of fact, Carl Jung once wrote Freud a letter, suggesting that psychoanalysis start acting as a formal religion; Freud thought that was a bit too premature.
Actually, I think it was this religious aspect which attracted the Frankfurt School to Freud in the 1930s. I probably should tell you that, like many psychoanalysts today, I came to Freud by way of the Frankfurt School—you know: Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, Theodor Adorno.
A Hungarian fellow named Georg Lukacs founded the Frankfurt School because he was trying to determine how to cause massive social changes. Lukacs was specifically interested in developing Bolshevism, but the technique works for any ideology. Lukacs said that you had to make people completely pessimistic; you had to make them believe that they lived in "a world abandoned by God," as he put it. At the same time, the new social movement that you were trying to create had to have certain key similarities to a religion—but, of course, without a concept of a Supreme Being. In fact, Lukacs seriously investigated the Baal Shem cult, a Jewish cabbalistic sect, as well as several medieval Christian heresies, in order to find what he called the "messianic" ideas which could be incorporated into Bolshevik organizing.
Freudian theory fit this bill precisely; it was just like going back to the Gnostic cults of the Middle Ages: The demons were back, the evil was being generated in your own mind, and you needed a new priesthood to save you. The Frankfurt School's extension of Freud was the major reason why psychoanalysis became so influential in American life after World War II. The Frankfurt School helped us all to discover how bad our mental health really was—how we had to liberate ourselves from the authoritarian constraints that made us neurotic; that we must resist the imposition of universal values, and embrace a healthy personal hedonism.
Fixing up Freud
Now, as your psychoanalyst, I hate to admit it, but, even though he had a great model for the individual mind, Freud's social psychology was a disaster. But, the Frankfurt School solved that. Freud had said that the individual human identity was based on the interaction of biology—that is, the instinctual drives embedded in man's hereditary structure—with the experiences of growing to maturity within the structure of the family. Freud thought all people were more or less the same, because the instinctual drives were the same, and the family structures were more or less the same. The Frankfurt School corrected this by emphasizing that each culture, each people, each race, have important differences in their psychologies, because their differing family structures transmit the ideas of authority, value, morality, in different ways.
So, if you want to liberate your erosand become healthy, the most important thing is to find what separates one culture, one people, one race, from the other ones. The differences don't have to be in the genes—I mean, today, very few people will admit publicly that black people are biologically different from white people. But, the Frankfurt School emphasized what Freud only hinted at: Cultural differences transmitted through the family can be as rigid and as powerful as biological differences, and thus they proved that black people are fundamentally different from white people because their cultures are different.
And a lot of people in this country supported and sponsored the Frankfurt School, because they were able to use Freud's psychoanalytic theory to demonstrate scientifically that all values must be relative. And this is why, today, everybody—everybody except for a few extremists and religious fanatics—understands that universal values are really authoritarian, and that the family structure has to be changed—maybe even destroyed—to stop imposing these obsolete values on the young.
The 'Jewish identity' project
Anyway, in the modern world, in the post-industrial society, we can no longer afford this authoritarian sense of power over nature which the patriarchal family transmits; today, the most important aspect of mental health is giving people an identity that will make them happy and erotically satisfied. This was the great original contribution of the Frankfurt School after World War II, when they worked with several Jewish organizations to create a new identity for American Jews. The Frankfurt School said that henceforth, Jewish identity would be defined, not by religious belief, not by the ideas through which Jews contributed to the rest of humanity, but by the Holocaust: Jews would be trained to see themselves primarily as victims of genocide. This has worked fantastically; even today, Jews who think that the B'nai B'rith are a bunch of crooks still give money to that organization because they have been trained to believe that they are profoundly different from everybody else, and that anti-Semites are ready to start a new Holocaust at any moment.
The Jewish identity project worked so well that we Frankfurt School Freudians asked to do the same thing for black people. In the 1960s, many black people were successfully re-trained to believe that what really defined their identity was how their African ancestors had been enslaved by white people. We did the same thing for women: The feminist movement used Frankfurt School theory and Freud to help millions of women realize that what really defined their identity was male chauvinism.
You see how successful we have been? Today, we give everybody the identity they need. We even teach it in the schools—it's called multiculturalism.
Everybody gets an identity based on who raped whom:
The Latin Americans understand that the most important thing is to get back at the Spanish colonialists; the Native Americans understand that the most important thing is to get back at the whites—everyone separated from everyone else. Fear? hatred? revenge? Sure! We give them that—but we also give them an identity, and they are happy.
But, we have spent too much time talking about what I think. We should be talking about what you think. But, I see that our time is about up. I think that I can fit you in next week; shall we say Tuesday? A short session is usually $75 - You can pay as you leave.

. Jeff from Ohio asks on Facebook,
“Trump says the campaign has changed him. When did that happen?”
So, Mr. Trump, let me add to that.
When you walked off that bus at age 59, were you a different man or did that behavior continue until just recently?
And you have two minutes for this.
TRUMP:
It was locker room talk, as I told you. That was locker room talk.
I’m not proud of it. I am a person who has great respect for people, for my family, for the people of this country.
And certainly, I’m not proud of it.
But that was something that happened.
If you look at Bill Clinton, far worse.
Mine are words, and his was action.
His was what he’s done to women.
There’s never been anybody in the history politics in this nation that’s been so abusive to women.
So you can say any way you want to say it, but Bill Clinton was abusive to women.
Hillary Clinton attacked those same women and attacked them viciously.
Four of them here tonight.
One of the women, who is a wonderful woman, at 12 years old, was raped at 12.
Her client she represented got him off, and she’s seen laughing on two separate occasions, laughing at the girl who was raped.
Kathy Shelton, that young woman is here with us tonight.
So don’t tell me about words. I am absolutely — I apologize for those words.
But it is things that people say.
But what President Clinton did, he was impeached, he lost his license to practice law.
He had to pay an $850,000 fine to one of the women.
Paula Jones, who’s also here tonight.
And I will tell you that when Hillary brings up a point like that and she talks about words that I said 11 years ago, I think it’s disgraceful, and I think she should be ashamed of herself, if you want to know The Truth.
(APPLAUSE)
RADDATZ:
Can we please hold the applause? Secretary Clinton, you have two minutes.
CLINTON:
Well, first, let me start by saying that so much of what he’s just said is not right, but he gets to run his campaign any way he chooses.
He gets to decide what he wants to talk about.
Instead of answering people’s questions, talking about our agenda, laying out the plans that we have that we think can make a better life and a better country, that’s his choice.
When I hear something like that, I am reminded of what my friend, Michelle Obama, advised us all:
When they go low, you go high.
(APPLAUSE)
And, look, if this were just about one video, maybe what he’s saying tonight would be understandable, but everyone can draw their own conclusions at this point about whether or not the man in the video or the man on the stage respects women.
But he never apologizes for anything to anyone.
He never apologized to Mr. and Mrs. Khan, the Gold Star family whose son, Captain Khan, died in the line of duty in Iraq.
And Donald insulted and attacked them for weeks over their religion.
He never apologized to the distinguished federal judge who was born in Indiana, but Donald said he couldn’t be trusted to be a judge because his parents were, quote,
“Mexican.”
He never apologized to the reporter that he mimicked and mocked on national television and our children were watching.
And he never apologized for the racist lie that President Obama was not born in the United States of America.
He owes the President an apology, he owes our country an apology, and he needs to take responsibility for his actions and his words.
TRUMP:
Well, you owe the president an apology, because as you know very well, your campaign, Sidney Blumenthal — he’s another real winner that you have — and he’s the one that got this started, along with your campaign manager, and they were on television just two weeks ago, she was, saying exactly that.
So you really owe him an apology.
You’re the one that sent the pictures around your campaign, sent the pictures around with President Obama in a certain garb.
That was long before I was ever involved, so you actually owe an apology.
Number two, Michelle Obama.
I’ve gotten to see the commercials that they did on you.
And I’ve gotten to see some of the most vicious commercials I’ve ever seen of Michelle Obama talking about you, Hillary.
So, you talk about friend?
Go back and take a look at those commercials, a race where you lost fair and square, unlike the Bernie Sanders race, where you won, but not fair and square, in my opinion.
And all you have to do is take a look at WikiLeaks and just see what they say about Bernie Sanders and see what Deborah Wasserman Schultz had in mind, because Bernie Sanders, between super-delegates and Deborah Wasserman Schultz, he never had a chance.
And I was so surprised to see him sign on with The Devil.
But when you talk about apology, I think the one that you should really be apologizing for and the thing that you should be apologizing for are the 33,000 e-mails that you deleted, and that you acid washed, and then the two boxes of e-mails and other things last week that were taken from an office and are now missing.
And I’ll tell you what. I didn’t think I’d say this, but I’m going to say it, and I hate to say it.
But if I win, I am going to instruct my attorney general to get a Special Prosecutor to look into your situation, because there has never been so many lies, so much deception.
There has never been anything like it, and we’re going to have a Special Prosecutor.
When I speak, I go out and speak, the people of this country are furious.
In my opinion, the people that have been long-term workers at the FBI are furious.
There has never been anything like this, where e-mails — and you get a subpoena, you get a subpoena, and after getting the subpoena, you delete 33,000 e-mails, and then you acid wash them or bleach them, as you would say, very expensive process.
So we’re going to get a Special Prosecutor, and we’re going to look into it, because you know what?
People have been —
Their lives have been destroyed for doing one-fifth of what you’ve done
.
And it’s a disgrace.
And honestly, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.

Simonson:
That's True.
Gilbert:
They can't risk, uh... catastrophe, They say.
Simonson:
They're right.
Gilbert:
Then, uh... this is Right?
Simonson:
No, not Right...
Necessary.
Gilbert:
To who?
Simonson:
To... God.
Take heed; for he holds vengeance in his hands,
To hurl upon their heads that break his law.
He needs no indirect nor lawless course
To cut off those that have offended him.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
We're closing the Simonson case.
Det. Thorn :
The hell you say.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
You heard me. The Simonson case is officially closed. Felonious assault. Sign.
Det. Thorn :
Yesterday you agreed it was assassination.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
There's been 137 reported murders since then. And we won't solve them either.
Det. Thorn :
I'm not gonna falsify that report.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
Got a suspect?
Det. Thorn :
I've got leads.
This isn't somebody you scratch after 24 hours and forget.
I told you there's been a tail on me.
Something stinks here.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
Look. You'll sign this. And I'll bury it.
Det. Thorn :
Like hell you will.
A member of the board of the Soylent Corporation was torn apart with a meat hook!
You can't sweep that carcass under the rug.
Who bought you?
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
You're bought when They pay you a salary.
Det. Thorn :
Who's They?
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
High and hot. They want this case closed permanently! Their way.
Now you sign this.
Det. Thorn :
You sign it!
If my name closes this case and somebody higher and hotterwants to know why, it's my job!
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
Sign it. I'll cover for you.
Det. Thorn :
I won't put my job in the line for you, Hatcher
Not my damn job!
To be a Black Thorn is to be The Senior Partners' instrument on Earth. Doesn't get bigger than that.
But say, my lord, it were not register'd,
Methinks The Truth should live from age to age,
As 'twere retail'd to all posterity,
Even to the general all-ending day.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
My name is Paul.
[ It means "small". ]
Have I done something?
Det. Thorn :
No. I'm investigating the murder of Mr. William Simonson.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Who do you say?
Det. Thorn :
Simonson. Quite an important man.
A rich man.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
I have no recollection.
Det. Thorn :
You talked to him.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Did I?
No doubt about it.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
A rich man. Yes. I remember.
We don't see rich people here anymore.
There isn't even enough room for the poor.
There's just too many.
Far too many.
Det. Thorn :
Fa...
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
My memory's eroded.
Chiefly, I assign space to people who need space.
Do you need some space?
Det. Thorn :
I need to know what he said to you.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Are you sure he's dead?
Det. Thorn :
Yes.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Really dead?
Det. Thorn :
He's dead.
What did he talk to you about?
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Come back tomorrow.
I'm very tired now.
Det. Thorn :
Father.
Father. Did you hear his confession?
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
There should be a requiem mass.... But there's no room.
Det. Thorn : Should I make room? This is very important.
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD : I can't help you.
Forgive me. It's destroying me.
Det. Thorn :
What is? Exhausted Priest w. PTSD : The Truth.
Det. Thorn :
The Truth Simonson told you?
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD : All Truth. Det. Thorn : What is it?
What did he confess?
Exhausted Priest w. PTSD :
Sweet Jesus...
Solomon :
It's horrible.
Senior Elder T'Pau, Superior Head of The Supreme Exchange :
You must accept it.
Solomon :
I see the words.
But I can't believe them.
Senior Elder T'Pau, Superior Head of The Supreme Exchange :
Believe.
The evidence is overwhelming.
Simonson was a member of The Board.
He learned these facts. And they shook his sanity.
The corporation knew...
...he was not reliable anymore.
They feared he might talk...
...and so he was eliminated.
Solomon :
Then why are They doing this?
Senior Elder T'Pau, Superior Head of The Supreme Exchange : Because it's easier.
I think "expedient" is the word.
What we need is the proof of what they are doing...
...before we bring it to the Council of Nations.
Solomon :
Good God...
Elder :
What God. Mr. Roth?
Where will we find him?
Solomon :
Perhaps at Home.
Elder :
Yes. At Home.
Fielding :
Oh, no.
I won't hit a cop.
Bastard.
Det. Thorn :
Yeah. I know.
He slaps his Woman around and tosses her into the corner - Fielding comes flying across the room at him like some kind of Bruce Lee shit, kicking him in the head
Det. Thorn :
You'll get Life for that. Jerk!
Life in a waste disposal plant in a Soylent factory someplace.
[ Or, perhaps not.]
How about that big fat Soylent Corporation?
Do you work for them like Simonson did?
How much did they pay you for that one?
Does Soylent buy your strawberries?
Anybody tails me. Bothers me one more time...
...l'll come back here and kill you both. Got it?
Get off my back!
Solomon :
I haven't eaten like this in years.
Det. Thorn :
I never ate like this.
Solomon :
And now you know what you've been missing.
There was A World once. You punk.
Det. Thorn :
Yes. So you keep telling me.
Solomon :
I was there. I can prove it.
Det. Thorn :
I know. I know.
When you were young.
People were better.
Solomon :
Oh, Nuts. People were always rotten.
But The World was Beautiful.
Det. Thorn :
Sol. Can you hear me?
Solomon :
Thorn
Yes.
Solomon :
Thank you for coming.
Det. Thorn :
Oh, dear God.
Solomon :
I've lived too long.
Det. Thorn :
No.
Solomon :
I love you. Thorn.
Det. Thorn :
I love you. Sol.
Solomon :
Can you see it?
Det. Thorn :
Yes.
Solomon :
Isn't it beautiful?
Det. Thorn :
Oh. Yes.
Solomon :
I told you.
How could I know?
How could I...?
How could I ever imagine?
Solomon :
Horrible.
Simonson.
Soylent.
Listen to me. Thorn.
Thorn. Listen.
Det. Thorn :
I can't hear him.
Do something. Damn it!
Yes. Sol.
........
Solomon :
You've got to prove it, Thorn.
Go to The Exchange.
Please, Thorn.
You've got to prove it. Thorn.
The Exchange.
Go to...
*****
Det. Thorn :
Hatcher...
...get to the Exchange.
You gotta tell them they're Right.
Chief of Detectives Hatcher :
But let's take care of you first.
Det. Thorn :
You don't understand.
I've got proof.
They need proof.
I've seen it. I've seen it happening.
They've gotta tell people.
Larry Gopnick :
Did you follow that?
Sy Able man :
Of coss.
Except that I know what's going on.
How do you explain.
Larry Gopnick :
Well, it might be that, in, you know, in L'olam ha-bah -
