A woman who was plagued for years by 'neighbours from hell' died after accidentally downing a cocktail of drink and drugs to help her cope. Christine Barrett, 58, who had arthritis in her back, died after washing down her usual dose of painkillers with alcohol to try and block out the noise at the council flat where she lived alone in St Albans, Hertfordshire. Her sister - who said Ms Barrett had been forced to suffer the anti-social behaviour for at least five years - has claimed the council should have rehoused the 'frightened' secretary, who was taking medication for anxiety and depression. Ms Barrett's GP, Dr Xanthe Cross, told an inquest her patient had admitted drinking at night time because the noise created by her rowdy neighbours was preventing her from sleeping.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
