“But are there not many fascists in your country?"
"There are many who do not know they are fascists but will find it out when the times comes.”

― Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

“I proclaim that I believe in nothing and that everything is absurd, but I cannot doubt the validity of my proclamation and I must at least believe in my protest.”
