― Vaclav Havel

“The dissident does not operate in the realm of genuine power at all. He is not seeking power. He has no desire for office and does not gather votes. He does not attempt to charm the public, he offers nothing and promises nothing. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost.”
― Václav Havel

“The real test of a man is not when he plays the role that he wants for himself but when he plays the role destiny has for him.”
― Vaclav Havel

“There's always something suspect about an intellectual on the winning side.”
― Vaclav Havel
