Quote by Max Hastings

“Bethmann-Hollweg era davvero irremovibile non tanto sulle sue richieste territoriali – cercò, a un certo punto, di dissuadere il Kaiser dall’insistere sull’annessione del Belgio – quanto sull’intenzione di imporre una unione doganale sul continente: «è sottinteso che l’unione doganale dovrà rendere possibile il controllo della Germania sull’Europa»”

Ecco, la Grecia è anche questo. Eraclito che scrive: "Da ciò che è in lotta nasce la più bella armonia. Tutto si realizza attraverso la discordia".”

“Sometimes I feel so lost in this world I couldn't find my way Lost in confusion and endless worry It's difficult It is so difficult to climb out of a deep whole which you slowly dug yourself into When you scream and no one hears When you cry and no one notices When you smile and laugh but inside you are full of pain It's so difficult but I'm still here”
