Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
When one is already on the edge of the grave, why not resist?
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The clock of communism has stopped striking. But its concrete building has not yet come crashing down. For that reason, instead of freeing ourselves, we must try to save ourselves from being crushed by its rubble.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
... but it is human to be outraged by injustice, even to the point of courting destruction!
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
