    “Cunning is neither the consequence of sense, nor does it give sense. A proof that it is not sense, is that cunning people never imagine that others can see through them. It is the consequence of weakness.”
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    “For us in Russia, communism is a dead dog, while, for many people in the West, it is still a living lion.”
