Russian Writer, Novelisst, Vegetarian, Pacifist, Christian Theorist, Libertarian, Ally of Anarchists, and Regarded as one of the Greatest Authors of all Time
: A Russian writer who is regarded as one of the greatest authors of all time. He received nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, 1902, and 1909; the fact that he never won is a major controversy. (From: Wikipedia.org.)

Quote #10 on Political Struggle Quotes >> War and Nationalism
“...the maintenance and defense of any nationality -- Russian, German, French, or Anglo-Saxon, provoking the corresponding maintenance and defense not only of Hungarian, Polish, and Irish nationalities, but also of Basque, Provencal, Mordva, Tchouvash, and many other nationalities --serves not to harmonize and unite men, but to estrange and divide them more and more from one another.
[Part 1.]”
