“Three keys to success: read, read, read.”
― Vladimir Lenin

“As I wrote in Bread and Authority, “we who live in normal times can have little conception of what is required to restore the structure of everyday life and return efficacy and meaning to social activity. We should be more ready than we often are to extend our compassion and admiration.” Or, to put it in more social-sciency terms, we need to be aware of the powerful constraints, the daunting cost-benefit choices, and the meagre alternatives before we judge. Or, to put it more colloquially, if we walk imaginatively a mile or two in their shoes, we might be inclined to cut these guys more slack.”
