Quotes

  • Kathleen Groverhas quoted8 years ago
    f. He wondered if the real world was that one in which men fought
    for policies and principles and died or lived gloriously - or more often miser-
    ably - for the sake of an abstract word like patriotism or independence, or if
    reality belonged to the humble people and the common land.
