“You have forgotten the One
who doesn't care about ownership,
who doesn't try to turn a profit

You need more help than you know.”

“Practically all human literature deals with the present and the past; when literature tries to describe the future, it at once ceases to be human and ceases to be literature; and all the pictures which the Bolsheviks have so far given us of a future world constructed on the design of Lenin are so depressing that nobody would like to read about such a world, much less to live in it.”
― Francis Mccullagh, A prisoner of the Reds, the story of a British officer captured Siberia
