More quotes by Tzvetan Todorov
People who believe themselves to be the incarnation of good have a distorted view of the world.
Tzvetan Todorov
For evil to take place, the acts of a few people are not sufficient the great majority also has to remain indifferent. That is something of which we are all quite capable.
Tzvetan Todorov
