Emily Quotes

“I never met a revolutionary yet who didn’t secretly want to be tsar himself. And if one of your fanatical chums ever does succeed to the purple, whatever his title may be—tsar or president or chief co-ordinator of the people’s revolution—you can bet your last rouble that he will out-caesar Caesar in the most spectacular way.”
― Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, Emily: Book Three of The Kirov Saga
