Quotes 21 May

The cup kills more than the cannon.—Thomas Watson

“Electronic bugging in [the USSR] is such a simple thing that it's a matter of everyday life.... Almost every apartment, every institution has got its bug and it doesn't surprise us in the least - we are used to it.” #Solzhenitsyn

Tone of voice, look, and manner can prove no less
eloquent than choice of words.
     --Francois de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)
      _Maxims_ [1678], Maxim 249
