“It may help to understand human affairs to be clear that most of the great triumphs and tragedies of history are caused, not by people being fundamentally good or fundamentally bad, but by people being fundamentally people.”

“Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire,

To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.”
