Bureaucracy Quote by Ernest Hemingway

“They questioned us but they were polite because we had passports and money. I do not think they believed a word of the story and I thought it was silly but it was like a law-court. You did not want something reasonable, you wanted something technical and then stuck to it without explanations.” quote by Ernest Hemingway
