Timothy Snyder

“It is easy to sanctify policies or identities by the deaths of victims. It is less appealing, but morally more urgent, to understand the actions of the perpetrators. The moral danger, after all, is never that one might become a victim but that one might be a perpetrator or a bystander.”

Timothy Snyder, Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin
