    I think we have to accept the limits of each literary age. I wonder what future generations will make of ours.


Most likely they'll wonder why we were so obsessed with vampires and wizards.

      Quote:
      It's hard to see, but there are two sides to every political story. The Chinese believe their system has been sustained for thousands of years while the U.S. one is collapsing after a couple hundred. The Nazi Germans decided to take over Europe because they were terrified of the British, French, and Russians, and figured the only way to stay alive was to control everything. The Russians spent the entire cold war thinking the Americans were terrifying and insane because they were talking about first-strike capability and space-based weapons, and had missiles parked right on their back porch (via NATO).

    There are at least two sides, but they don't always have equal justification.


It's still interesting to think that an entire generation of Americans were brought up to fear the Russians, yet looking back it was America that was much more dangerous to the existence of Russia. It turns out that they were mostly bluffing, but America actually did have the weaponry to annihilate Russia.
