Svetlana Alexievich
“Remembering is not a passionate or dispassionate retelling of a reality that is no more, but a new birth of the past, when time goes in reverse. As they narrate, people create, they “write” their life. Sometimes they also “write up” or “rewrite.”
Svetlana Alexievich, War's Unwomanly Face

“Our mental existences, which are immaterial and have no dimensions, are passing along the Time-Dimension with a uniform velocity from the cradle to the grave”
H. G. Wells, THE TIME MACHINE

Karl Marx
“As, in private life, the distinction is made between what a man thinks of himself and says, and that which he really is and does, so, all the more, must the phrases and notions of parties in historic struggles be distinguished from the real organism, and their real interests, their notions and their reality.”
Karl Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte

Robert K. Massie
“The majority of votes does not confirm the truth, but only indicates the wishes of the majority.
Truth is confirmed by profound reason and impartiality”
Robert K. Massie, Catherine the Great: Portrait of a Woman

Voltaire
“Rien n'était si beau, si l'este, si brillant, si bien ordonné que les deux armées. Les trompettes, les fifres, les hautbois, les tambours, les canons, formaient une harmonie telle qu'il n'y en eut jamais en enfer.


Il faut cultiver notre jardin.”
Voltaire, Candide: Or Optimism
