“Of course, in the reality of history, the Machiavellian view which glorifies the principle of violence has been able to dominate.

—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“What he loved so much in the plant morphological structure of the tree was that given a fixed mathematical basis, the final evolution was so incalculable.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“They sort of Europeanized us all. Before them, our society hadn’t been the Great Society as much as it had been the Revlon Society.”
