Quotes
- “Having first robbed the Jews, the Nazis are beginning to rob the Church, and later will almost certainly expropriate what is left of the bourgeoisie property.”
- “It does not matter how 'courageous' a writer may be. Courage becomes useless, for a courageous writer who is not published is not a writer at all.”
- “Age is not measured by years. Nature does not equally distribute energy. Some people are born old and tired while others are going strong at seventy.”
- “The most destructive element in the human mind is fear. Fear creates aggressiveness; aggressiveness engenders hostility; hostility engenders fear — a disastrous circle.”
- “It is not the fact of liberty but the way in which liberty is exercised that ultimately determines whether liberty itself survives. When liberty is taken away by force it can be restored by force. When it is relinquished voluntarily by default it can never be recovered.”
- “They have not wanted Peace at all; they have wanted to be spared war — as though the absence of war was the same as peace.”
