Words of thanks to Klaus's people for appreciating our work
September 3, 2010
On the 1st September 2010, Mr. Petr Hájek, Václav Klaus's vice-chancellor, at a demonstration of the D.O.S.T. Initiative, in presence of Jana Bobošíková and other comparably significant and popular personalities of our public life, touched on our work:
"For twenty years the experts of the popular presidential library of Václav Havel have been organizing non-stop Courses of Progress: crowds of journalists, feminists, gays, green alarmists and other comrades, headed by the local branch of the Fifth Column of the European Union, strive day and night to whiten your hearts and brains into an ideal progressive purity."
We would like to express our heart-felt thanks for this appreciation. Pronounced by his mouth, formulated by his vocabulary and addressed to people of his mentality, it means a very strong incentive for our further work.

Letters to Olga – essays written in prison, letter
„If I consider the problem as that which the world is turning me into – that is, as a tiny screw in a giant machine, deprived of human identity – then there is really nothing I can do. Obviously I cannot put a stop to the destruction of the globe, the growing stupidity of nations and the repoduction of thousands of new thermonuclear bombs. If, however, I consider it as that which each of us originally is, or rahter what each of us – irrespective of the state of the world – has the basic potential to become, which is to say an autonomous human being, capable of acting responsibly to and for the world, then of course there is a great deal I can do.“
