The New Yorker: PRINTABLES: "'When I was in Vienna,' Feith said, 'I went to the Ringstrasse, these enormous buildings, most of which were built twenty, twenty-five years before World War One. These buildings were built as the headquarters of a world empire, and they were built for the ages-enormous, imperially scaled buildings. They were built to last. But these people were absolutely on the verge of destruction of their empire, and they didn't see it. And that was a humbling experience.
'What I don't believe in, I suppose, is certainty.'"
