...medical officer in the Rumanian air force, Dr. Alexander Cohen, graduate of Paris and London medical schools, had news of the moral and physical health of many top Rumanians. Porcine Ana Pauker, onetime Communist boss, had a secret cancer operation at a Vienna hospital in 1951. Now 63, Ana Pauker ("who frequented all the right beds in her time and once had a direct phone line to Stalin") still lives in her luxurious apartment in Bucharest, comforted by large doses of tranquilizers (evipan) and morphine (regular 1½-grain doses administered by state doctors). Ana Pauker lost power in Stalin...

Author Peale issues some categorical imperatives, e.g., "Love your job," "Have a spiritual operation on yourself and get all moral fester removed." The Peale disciple's day begins with mental pushups: 'This is going to be a fine day. I had a splendid night's sleep. I am glad that I am alive. First. I shall enjoy a good breakfast. Then I will have some happy fellowship with my loved ones before...
