“All the pale horses of the Apocalypse have stormed through my life,
Revolution and famine, inflation and terror, epidemics and emigration;
I have seen the great mass ideologies grow and spread before my eyes,
fascism in Italy,
National Socialism in Germany, Bolshevism in Russia and above all that arch-plague,
nationalism,
which has poisoned the flowering of our European culture.”
– The World of Yesterday: Memoirs of a European, Stefan Zweig, 1942.
