A Quote by Alexander Solzhenitsyn
Let us not forget that violence does not and cannot flourish by itself; it is inevitably intertwined with lying. Between them there is the closest, the most profound and natural bond: nothing screens violence except lies, and the only way lies can can hold out is by violence. Whoever has once announced violence as his method must inevitably choose lies as his principle....The simple act of an ordinary courageous man is not to take part, not to support lies! Let the lie come into the world, even dominate the world, but not through me.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Nobel address, 1970
