To talk about it

"I am strongly drawn to ---, and almost as strongly offended by it. That is why I want to talk about it, and why I can. For no one who wholeheartedly shares in a given sensibility can analyze it; he can only, whatever his intention, exhibit it. To name a sensibility, to draw its contours and to recount its history, requires a deep sympathy modified by revulsion."

A casual purchase

Adolf Hitler presents Hermann Goering with The Falconer, 1880, a painting by the nineteenth century Austrian academic painter Hans Makart. Hitler bought the painting legitimately from art dealer Karl Haberstock.

Protester

"(...) la vie elle-même est si distordue, déformée, qu'au fond personne n'est en mesure d'y vivre une vraie vie, d'y accomplir sa propre destinée d'être humain – oui, j'irais presque jusqu'à dire : que le monde est organisé de telle sorte que même la revendication la plus élémentaire d'intégrité et de décence doit à dire vrai nécessairement conduire tout un chacun à protester".
Theodore Adorno dans Problèmes de philosophie morale, citation de Judith Butler.
