Volume Two: ...Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin are the common teachers for the world revolution. Comrade Mao Tse-tung has skilfully "Sinicized" the ideology of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin, correctly applied it to the practical situation of China, and has led the Chinese Revolution to complete victory. Owing to geographical, historical, economic and cultural conditions, the Chinese Revolution exerted a great influence on the Vietnamese revolution, which had to learn and indeed has learned many experiences from it. - Ho Chi Minh
Volume One:...There are fearful excitements on any side. Any side can accuse the other And feel virtuous without the hardships of virtue. When pride of race has been pent up In a tyrannous disregard, and valued liberties Have been lost for long enough, what comes in the way Of Dignity's free and natural flowing Is nothing but rocks to be blasted. I envy them Their certainty. Each private man Has a public cause to elucidate him, And a reasonable sense of having been wronged. If you like you can call this man your enemy; It's what he expects. - Christopher Fry, The Dark is Light Enough

Volume Two: It will prove only of academic interest to archaeologists, who, ages and ages hence, uncover burned and buckled Pentagon walls, there to find words once written in a Chaldean temple: Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin. Thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting.
Volume One: Failure to study each of these actions in its own right and to identify common and peculiar characteristics, simply added to the general ignorance that traditionally had surrounded guerrilla war.
