More quotes by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
And the over-all fact that you are a frail vessel full of errors.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
It is unthinkable in the twentieth century to fail to distinguish between what constitutes an abominable atrocity that must be prosecuted and what constitutes that past which ought not to be stirred up.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The simple act of an ordinary courageous man is not to take part, not to support lies! Let that come into the world and even reign over it, but not through me. Writers and artists can do more: they can vanquish lies! ... Lies can stand up against much in the world, but not against art.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
As for Europe, its claims towards Russia are fairly transparently based on fears about energy, unjustified fears at that.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Was it Gorky who had said, If your children are no better than you are, you have fathered them in vain, indeed you have lived in vain.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
We never know beforehand how new posts or new work will change us.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
A meek fellow ... is a real godsend in any gang.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
If... if... We didn't love freedom enough. And even more - we had no awareness of the real situation. We spent ourselves in one unrestrained outburst in 1917, and then we hurried to submit. We submitted with pleasure! ........... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
It's quite enough to show a well-beaten dog the whip.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
If you live in a graveyard, you can't weep for everyone.
