Let us not forget that violence does not live alone and is not capable of living alone: it is necessarily interwoven with falsehood. Between them lies the most intimate, the deepest of natural bonds. Violence finds its only refuge in falsehood, falsehood its only support in violence. Any man who has once acclaimed violence as his method must inexorably choose falsehood as his principle.
-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, novelist, Nobel laureate (11 Dec 1918-2008)
One trouble with living beyond your deserved number of years is that there's always some reason to live another year. And I'd like to live another year so that Nixon won't be President. If he's re-elected I'll have to live another four years.
-Rex Stout, novelist (1 Dec 1886-1975) [Nixon resigned in 1974.]
Ideologies separate us. Dreams and anguish bring us together.
-Eugene Ionesco, playwright (26 Nov 1909-1994)
