Doris Lessing Quotes:

Ocupation: Novelist

Life: October 22, 1919 - November 17, 2013

Birthday: October 22

Death: November 17

All political movements are like this - we are in the right, everyone else is in the wrong. The people on our own side who disagree with us are heretics, and they start becoming enemies. With it comes an absolute conviction of your own moral superiority. There's oversimplification in everything, and a terror of flexibility.

- Doris Lessing
