More quotes by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
People who are at ease with their consciences always look happy.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The name of 'reform' simply covers what is latently a process of the theft of the national heritage.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Here again we witness the single outcome of a worldwide process, with East and West yielding the same results, and once again for the same reason: Men have forgotten God.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Justice is conscience, not a personal conscience but the conscience of the whole of humanity. Those who clearly recognize the voice of their own conscience usually recognize also the voice of justice.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
If we look far into the future, one can see a time in the 21st century when both Europe and the USA will be in dire need of Russia as an ally.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
I have always had that inner drive, since my birth. And I have always devoted myself gladly to work - to work and to the struggle.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Our government declared that it is conducting some kind of great reforms. In reality, no real reforms were begun and no one at any point has declared a coherent programme.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
For me faith is the foundation and support of one's life.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Hastiness and superficiality are the psychic diseases of the 20th century, and more than anywhere else this disease is reflected in the press.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
There are a lot of clear thinkers everywhere.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Man has set for himself the goal of conquering the world but in the processes loses his soul.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The next war... may well bury Western civilization forever.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
...skepticism can never provide firm ground under a man's feet. And perhaps, after all, we need firm ground.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
... but food eaten quickly isn't food.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
You get no thanks from your belly-it always forgets what you've just done for it and comes begging again the next day.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
But there are still people whose moral superiority defeats your own.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
People can live through hardship, but from hard feelings they perish.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
We always pay dearly for chasing after what is cheap.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousandfold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers . . . we are ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
