Yevgeny Zamyatin Quotes

Even Among The Ancients The More Grown-up Knew That The Source Of Right Is Power, That Right Is A Function Of Power. So Take Some Scales And Put On One Side A Gram, On The Other A Ton; On One Side "I" And On The Other "We," OneState. It's Clear, Isn't It? - To Assert That "I" Have Certain "rights" With Respect To The State Is Exactly The Same As Asserting That A Gram Weighs The Same As A Ton. That Explains The Way Things Are Divided Up: To The Ton Go The Rights, To The Gram The Duties. And The Natural Path From Nullity To Greatness Is This: Forget That You're A Gram And Feel Yourself A Millionth Part Of A Ton.
