“Anti-Semitism is dangerous for the toilers, for it is a false track which diverts them from the proper road and leads them into the jungle. Hence, Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be irreconcilable and bitter enemies of anti-Semitism. In the U.S.S.R., anti-Semitism is strictly prosecuted as a phenomenon hostile to the Soviet system. According to the laws of the U.S.S.R. active anti-Semites are punished with death.” LawEnemyDangerousTrackJewActiveBitterConsistentPhenomenonCommunistSovietHostileJungleAnti Semitism Author:Joseph Stalin
“Quite often, and in fact more often, I would say, I'm struggling all the way through to think, "What is it I like about this? What is the personality of this thing I'm hearing that I like so much?"

It's something that I have mixed feelings about in the sense that it's both, say, placid and dangerous, or bitter and sweet, or dark and bright.” ThinkingWayFactsFeelingsDarkEmotionStruggleDangerousSweetPersonalityHearingBitterPlacidMixed FeelingsMixed Emotions Author:Brian Eno
“The things that make them similar - their machismo, their expansionary braggadocio - is going to turn them I think into bitter and dangerous enemies. We will look back on this moment where we thought Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump were sort of close as a moment of bitter irony, when they get into a schoolyard display against each other, amping up each other's worst tendencies and putting the two countries in some sort of scary position.” ThinkingCountryMomentsEnemyWorstDangerousScaryBitterIronyMachismo Author:David Brooks
