History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it.
- Churchill
I know that after my death a pile of rubbish will be heaped on my grave, but the wind of History will sooner or later sweep it away without mercy.
- Stalin
I’ve known of both of these quotes for some time but it never occured to me how much they complement one another.
We’ve seen the truth steadily eroding Churchill’s reputation as his conduct during the Bengal famine (among so many other things) becomes more mainstream knowledge.
Cathartic to see it happening.
Stalin’s reputation also improved when the Soviet archives were declassified. These quotes do go well together, well done for spotting this comrade
“The Aryan stock is bound to triump.” is enough of a quote to show what a complete piece of shit WC was, at least he has the right initials to be a public bathroom.
