Prisons We Choose to Live Inside by Doris Lessing

4.0

"Looking back over my life, which has now lasted sixty-six years, what I see is a succession of great mass events, boilings up of emotion, of wild partisan passion, that pass, but while they last it is not possible to do more than think: 'These slogans, or these accusations, these claims, these trumpetings, quite soon they will seem to everyone ridiculous and even shameful.' Meanwhile, it is not possible to say so."

Yeah, she used the word 'trumpetings.' In 1986.
