—Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
“An innocent man is a sin before God. Inhuman and therefore untrustworthy. No man should live without absorbing the sins of his kind, the foul air of his innocence, even if it did wilt rows of angel trumpets and cause them to fall from their vines.”

—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
