Doris Lessing Quotes

She Was Thinking - For, Since She Had Been Formed By Literature, She Could Think In No Other Way - That All This Had Been Described In Dickens, Tolstoy, Hugo, Dostoevsky, And A Dozen Others. All That Noble And Terrific Indignation Had Done Nothing, Achieved Nothing, The Shout Of Anger From The Nineteenth Century Might As Well Have Been Silent - For Here Came The File Of Prisoners, Handcuffed Two By Two, And On Their Faces Was That Same Immemorial Look Of Patient, Sardonic Understanding.
