This is a quote by Elizabeth Proctor.
It is an important quote from <em>The Crucible </em>(1953) by Arthur Miller, a play that explores the story of the Salem witch trials in Massachussets in 1692.
In the play, Elizabeth Proctor is accused of witchcraft by Abigail Williams, her husband's mistress. In that way, the quote is from Elizabeth to John. In this excerpt of the play, she is talking about Abigail, who apparently wants to take Elizabeth's place. Therefore, Elizabeth uses these words to explain her husband that his mistress accuses her of witchcraft because she is motivated by jealously.
A collective fear can lead to irrational actions and violation of rights. This is the theme common with The Crucible and the World War II. An example is when Japanese Americans were imprisoned without enough evidences. The war has the highest number of casualties making it the deadliest among other wars.
