“He who has been impoverished for a long time ... who has long stood before the door of the mighty in darkness and begged for alms, has filled his heart with bitterness so that it resembles a sponge full of gall; he knows about the injustice and folly of all human action and sometimes his lips tremble with rage and a stifled scream.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“Any plan conceived in moderation must fail when the circumstances are set in extremes.”
—Klemens Wenzel Neponuk Lothar Von, Prince Metternich (17731859)
