Error is the force that welds men together

I am enjoying Leo Tolstoy's "What Then Must We Do?" (pdf) It is like a DNA test for whatever passes for the mitochondrial DNA of Leftist memes.

Take this gem closing Chapter II, for example.

I therefore felt and feel and shall not cease to feel that as long as I have any superfluous food and someone else has none, and I have two coats and someone else has none, I share in a constantly repeated crime.

Written like a man who has had two coats given to him. If he had earned even one coat, he would have known better.
