Not reading Jünger's In Stahlgewittern? Tom Send a noteboard - 02/04/2014 07:30:25 PM

The Guns of August was a good book, but I would also read The Proud Tower, which you can get together if you buy the Library of America version. I believe I posted a review here about the two books back in 2012.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!
