Understanding how the limbic system’s freeze, flight, and fight responses influence nonverbal behavior is only part of the equation. As you study nonverbal behavior, you will discover that whenever there is a limbic response—especially to a negative or threatening experience—it will be followed by what I call pacifying behaviors (Navarro, 2007,
Atina'da Kadınların Durumu
In conservative Athens, women were generally considered fertile fields in which the male seed might be sown to produce children, preferably male, so Athenian women were mostly confined to quarters, living out their dreary lives in badly lit, badly ventilated rooms, and ill-fed into the bargain. In Athens, the girls were fed less than the boys on the theory that males were needed for the army and there wasn't enough food to go around in nonagrarian Athens to feed everybody.

Winston Churchill'in o meşhur konuşması:
We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

'hol,' i said, 'when you first came to the agency, i'm sorry i wasn't very... friendly. i know i could have been nicer to you.'
'oh, don't worry about that. we've talked about it before.' she pushed her hair back from her face. 'i'm sure i was an utter pain as well. anyway, it must have been odd, having me show up.'
'it was a bit, but─'
'but you needn't have worried.' she smiled at me. 'funnily enough, lockwood isn't actually my type.'
in my embarrassment, i'm not sure quite what my expression was right then, though i doubt the eerie red glow in the room made it massively attractive. it was sufficient to make holly laugh. she moved to look through another spy-hole at the far end of the window, which gave a different angle on the garden. 'don't look so shocked, lucy.' she said. 'i know how you feel about him. but, if anything, i had my eye on someone else.'
'good god, you don't mean george?'
holly laughed again; her eyes sparkled as she glanced at me sidelong. 'you must know there are other possibilities in this world.'
