"You don't need to pray to God any more when there are storms in the sky, but you do have to be insur..." — Bertolt Brecht

The finest plans have always been spoiled by the littleness of them that should carry them out. Even emperors can't do it all by themselves.

The defeats and victories of the fellows at the top aren't always defeats and victories for the fellows at the bottom.

Temptation to behave is terrible.

Right is its own defense.
