I liked this from Fraud, Famine and Fascism: (Referring to someone visiting Ukraine in 1941) " 'One can come across an ordinary village girl ... during our talk we discover that the girl is well-versed in mathematics, physics, chemistry ... People are well informed. One could discus any political or social theme with the peasants.' One can only wonder what kind of 'genocide results in such cultural and educational advances."
