The Fall of Night Quotes

“Fairness is a foolish concept,” the man said dryly.  The line of Russian infantrymen seemed never-ending.  “The world is full of people who would like the world to be fair, and it would be a nice thing if the world was fair, but the truth is they want the world to be fair in their favour.  ‘Fairness’ is only valued if you think that ‘fair’ will give you what you want.”
― Christopher Nuttall, The Fall of Night

“through; the guards removed his service weapon”
