Winston S. Churchill
“The Hitler tyranny was doomed. Here, then, we might pause in thankfulness and take hope, not only for victory on all fronts and in all three elements, but also for a safe and happy future for tormented mankind.”
Winston S. Churchill, Closing the Ring

Guillaume de Lorris
“Love, if I think right, is a sickness of thought that takes place between two persons of different sex when they are in close proximity and open to each other. It arises among people from the burning desire, born of disordinate glances, to embrace and kiss each other and to have the solace of one another's body. A lover so burns and is so enraptured that he thinks of nothing else; he takes no account of bearing fruit, but strives only for delight.”
Guillaume de Lorris, The Romance of the Rose

Michael Mann
“The history of Rome is the most fascinating historical laboratory available to
sociologists. It provides a 700-year stretch of written records and archaeological remains.”
Michael Mann, The Sources of Social Power: Volume 1, A History of Power from the Beginning to AD 1760

Michael Mann
“There is no end of history, no ultimate primacy, no necessary continued progress, for the unintended consequences of human action constantly create new interstitial problems, plural outcomes are always possible, and human beings have the capacity to choose well or badly, for good or ill, as we have seen repeatedly in this volume.”
Michael Mann, The Sources of Social Power: Volume 4, Globalizations, 1945-2011

“0 Juppiter vergeeft het mijn
Soo'ck weenich van u houwe,
U blixems niet soo crachtich sijn
Als d'oogen van mijn vrouwe.”
P.C. Hooft, De gedichten
