Quotes

  • “Arendt’s admirers will welcome her excursion into the relatively neglected field of comparative revolution. She is never dull, enormously erudite, always imaginative, original, and full of insights.”

    — Sunday Times (London)
  • " This is a study to which the thoughtful reader can return again and again for both intellectual delight and profit.”

    — Atlantic
  • “We are in the presence of a mind of high individuality, great interest, and intellectual integrity… A powerful indictment and illumination, both immediate and enduring.”
