The quote Lindsay shared from Clark L Hull was from ‘Hypnosis and Suggestibilty, An Experimental Approach’:

Chapter 12  Page 334 – Hypnosis Regarded as a Habit

“Clearly, Hypnotic susceptibility is greatly facilitated by practice. It is a remarkable and an interesting commentary on the tardy scientific development of hypnotism, that this striking and well know phenomenon aroused the experimental curiosity of no-one for at least 100 years”
