"The same old caveman feeling-greed, envy, violence, and mutual hate, which along the way assumed respectable pseudonyms like class struggle, racial struggle, mass struggle, labor-union struggle-are tearing our world to pieces."
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was a Russian novelist, historian, and dissident whose works exposed the Soviet forced-labor camp system. His major books include One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and The Gulag Archipelago. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970.
