" The goat herder was so unaccustomed to human company that he was short of words even in his inner speech.

It was common knowledge that the Yugoslavs hated each other more than they could ever hate a foreigner or an invader.

A guilty man wishes only to be understood, because to be understood is to appear to be forgiven.

Atrocities are something nothing less than the vengeance of the tormented.

The human heart likes a little disorder in its geometry.

Love delayed is lust augmented. "

Louis de Bernières , Corelli's Mandolin
