I believe the risks I take are justified y the sheer love of the life I lead Picture Quote #1

The obligation to earn one’s bread by the sweat of one’s brow also presumes the right to do so.

Slave camps under the flag of freedom, massacres justified by philanthropy or the taste of the superhuman, cripple judgment.

The purpose of this essay is to accept and study that strange challenge Picture Quote #1

What remains constant for me, during the last 15 years, has been the conviction that the cold war was a calamity for the entire world, and that it can be justified by no consideration of theory, nor by any supposed national interest Picture Quote #1
