  1. David Benioff _ City of Thieves

    The partisans would continue picking off Nazis; the Nazis would continue massacring noncombatants; and eventually the Fascists would learn that they could not win the war even if they killed thirty civilians for every one of their dead soldiers. The arithmetic was brutal, but brutal arithmetic always worked in Russia's favor.

  3. David Benioff _ City of Thieves

    I've always envied people who sleep easily. Their brains must be cleaner, the floorboards of the skull well swept, all the little monsters closed up in a steamer trunk at the foot of the bed. I was born an insomniac and that's the way I'll die, wasting thousands of hours along the way longing for unconsciousness, longing for a rubber mallet to crack me in the head, not so hard, not hard enough to do any damage, just a good whack to put me down for the night.

  7. David Benioff _ City of Thieves

    I have never been much a patriot. My father would not have allowed such a thing while he lived, and his death ensured that such a wish was carried out. Peter commanded far more affection and loyalty from me than the nation as a whole, but that night, running across the unplowed fields of winter wheat with the fascist invaders behind us and the dark Russian woods before us, I felt a surge of pure love for my country. We ran for the forest, crashing through the stalks of wheat, behind the rising moon and the stars spinning farther and farther away, alone beneath the godless sky.

    Lihatlah bajingan-bajingan itu mengencingi tanah kita. Mereka tak akan tertawa sekeras itu ketika aku berjongkok dan buang air besar di tengah-tengah Berlin. Mungkin itulah sebabnya aku tidak bisa mengeluarkan tinja. Ususku menunggu kemenangan.
