Quote of the Day (C. V. Wedgwood, on Officials With ‘Narrow Hearts and Little Minds’)

“The dismal course of the conflict [i.e., Europe’s "Thirty Years War,” 1618-1648], dragging on from one decade to the next and from one deadlock to the next, seems to me an object lesson on the dangers and disasters which can arise when men of narrow hearts and little minds are in high places.”― English historian C. V. Wedgwood (1910-1997), The Thirty Years War (1938)
