“The Great War differed from all ancient wars in the immense power of the combatants and their fearful agencies of destruction, and from all modern wars in the utter ruthlessness with which it was fought. ... Europe and large parts of Asia and Africa became one vast battlefield on which after years of struggle not armies but nations broke and ran. When all was over, Torture and Cannibalism were the only two expedients that the civilized, scientific, Christian States had been able to deny themselves: and they were of doubtful utility.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill““If there is a gun hanging on the wall in the first act, it must fire in the last.””
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.”
Seneca's Morals • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“One of the definitions of sanity, itself, is the ability to tell real from unreal. Shall we need a new definition?”
Future Shock • Alvin Toffler“To write weekly, to write daily, to write shortly, to write for busy people catching trains in the morning or for tired people coming home in the evening, is a heartbreaking task for men who know good writing from bad. They do it, but instinctively draw out of harm's way anything precious that might be damaged by contact with the public, or anything sharp that might irritate its skin.”
The Common Reader • Virginia Woolf
