H.W. Brands
“The Soviets don't want to win by war but by threat of war. They want to issue ultimatums to which we have to give in.”
H.W. Brands, Reagan: The Life

Robert K. Massie
“Why is almost the whole earth governed by monarchs?" Voltaire asked. "The honest answer is because men are rarely worthy of governing themselves... Almost nothing great has ever been done in the world except by the genius and firmness of a single man combating the prejudices of the multitude... I do not like government by the rabble.”
Robert K. Massie, Catherine the Great: Portrait of a Woman

H.W. Brands
“As individuals, we have a moral obligation no to endanger others, and that can mean endangering others with a gun, with a car, or with a virus. If a person has reason to believe that he or she may be a carrier, that person has a moral duty to be tested for AIDS; human decency requires it. And the reason is very simple: Innocent people are being infected by this virus, and some of them are going to acquire AIDS and die.”
H.W. Brands, Reagan: The Life

Christy Brown
“Writing may be immortal, but it does not bridge the gap between two human beings as the voice may, and oh, I would rather have an hour's fierce argument with a pal or a few moments of soft chatter with a girl than write the greatest book on earth”
Christy Brown, My Left Foot

H.W. Brands
“He quoted William Penn: "If we will not be governed by God, we must be governed by tyrants." And Thomas Jefferson: "The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time." And George Washington: "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.”
H.W. Brands, Reagan: The Life
