Explanation

When millions suffer under iron-fisted oppression, when anger and resentment boil into bloody insurrection, when triumph leads to savage vengeance — does one individual life matter?In A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens interweaves the intensely personal dramas of Lucie Manette, Charles Darnay, and Sydney Carton with the terror and chaos of the French Revolution. The result is a powerful story of love, sacrifice, and redemption amid horrific violence and world-changing events.

A Tale Of Two Cities - Charles Dickens

Death may beget life, but oppression can beget nothing other than itself.
Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms. Sow the same seeds of rapacious licence and oppression over again, and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
The leprosy of unreality disfigured every human creature in attendance.
I wish you to know that you have been the last dream of my soul.
That glorious vision of doing good is so often the sanguine mirage of so many good minds.
