Holden’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for King Rat (Asian Saga, #4)
King Rat (Asian Saga, #4) by James Clavell
4 highlights
A man who fails through his own stupidity has no right to be called a man. And no right to be the King, for the strongest is always the King, not by strength alone, but King by cunning and strength and luck together.

Holden’s Quotes

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.”
