Chris’s Quotes

“War, 46. 267. Bunyan, Intervention, 277,”
― Stephen Kotkin, Stalin: Volume I: Paradoxes of Power, 1878-1928

“I was impressed for the ten thousandth time by the fact that literature illuminates life only for those to whom books are a necessity. Books are unconvertible assets, to be passed on only to those who possess them already.”
― Anthony Powell, The Valley of Bones
