“The sign of our time is that the dignity of the human personality has no place: the age is, as are its laws, impersonal, its heart as of stone... .

Because he has to gasp for air all his life, panting for breath is the man of today's only way out.” MenWayHumansHeartAgeTodayLawDiesNamesSoundAirDogHe ManPersonalityDignityStonesBreathsVictimOur TimeExecutionersHuman Personality Author:Sadegh Hedayat
