Vasily Grossman

Willa Cather

So every bondman in his own hand bears by William Shakespeare

So every bondman in his own hand bears

William Shakespeare

When a captive lion steps out of his cage, he comes into a wider world than the lion who has known only the wilds. While he was in captivity, there were only two worlds for him - the world of the cage, and the world outside the cage. Now he is free. He roars. He attacks people. He eats them. Yet he is not satisfied, for there is no third world that is neither the world of the cage nor the world outside the cage.

Yukio Mishima
