Eileen Eileen said: " I had to take a sabbatical from reading this book as just reading about the lack of concern for the people on whom the atrocities were committed is beyond comprehending .
I do intend to finish reading this book .

John Connolly
“You have to understand that only the very worst end up here: the ones whose anger made them kill, and who felt no sorrow or guilt after the act; those so obsessed with themselves that they turned their backs on the sufferings of others, and left them in pain; those whose greed meant that others starved and died. Such souls belong here, because they would find no peace elsewhere. In this place, they are understood. In this place, their faults have meaning. In this place, they belong.”
John Connolly

“You were ordered to obey to Allah, and you were create to perform good deeds.”

Harry Leslie Smith
“There are so few people left alive from back then, you may as well be talking to them about the Black Death. Nobody recalls the shite in the 30s and that were fucking horrible. For Christ's sake, nobody wants to remember the shite in the 80s. It's all forgotten and swept under the rug by the newspapers and the BBC. They get nostalgic about the music, but they never want to mention the misery. It's all shite. As for the bloody Second World War, the politicians only talk about it when they need an excuse to go pissing about in one of those fucking Muslim countries.”
Harry Leslie Smith, Harry's Last Stand: How the world my generation built is falling down, and what we can do to save it

“So everybody who talks about homosexuals as a damnation better look in a mirror and try to heal their own selves. Who they call homosexuals do, at least, act out of their love. That’s better than the hate a whole lot of people act out of.”
J. California Cooper, Some Soul to Keep
