- André Gide se octl v úplných rozpacích, když všude pozoroval přímo nestvůrný kult Stalina. […] Stalin, krutovládce z Kavkazu nad Rusí, jest spíše symbolem, než skutečnou osobou, symbolem, jemuž náleží stejná úcta jako ikoně.
- André Gide felt completely confused when he saw the really monstrous cult of Stalin everywhere. […] Stalin, the tyrant from the Caucasus, which towers above Russia, is more a symbol than a real person, symbol to whom the same reverence belongs as to an icon.
