"The Death of the contemporary forms of social……" — Alexander Herzen

The Death of the contemporary forms of social order ought to gladden… - Alexander Herzen
"The Death of the contemporary forms of social order ought to gladden rather than trouble the soul. Yet what is frightening is that the departing world leaves behind it not an heir, but a pregnant widow. Between the death of the one and the birth of the other, much water will flow by, a long night of chaos and desolation will pass."
