Vasily Grossman Quotes:

Ocupation: Writer

Life: December 12, 1905 - September 14, 1964

Birthday: December 12

Death: September 14

The divine impeccability of the immortal [Soviet] State turned out not only to have suppressed individual human beings but also to have defended them, to have comforted them in their weakness, to have justified their insignificance. The State had taken on its own shoulders the entire weight of responsibility; it had liberated people from the chimera of conscience.
