—Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
“America is the only nation in history which, miraculously, has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization.”
—Attributed to Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)
“A man will not need to study history to find out what is best for his own culture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
