“People have passed through a very dark tunnel at the end of which there was a light of freedom. Unexpectedly they passed through the prison gates and found themselves in a square. They are now free and they don’t know where to go.”
- Václav Havel (b. 1936), Czech playwright and president: address to Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, quoted in “The Independent” (London), March 22, 1990.
“The liberals can understand everything but people who don’t understand them.”
- Lenny Bruce (1925 – 1966), American satirical comedian: “The Essential Lenny Bruce” (editor, John Cohen), 1967.
“To be conservative requires no brains whatsoever. Cabbages, cows and conifers are conservatives, and are so stupid they don’t even know it. All that is basically required is acceptance of what exists.”
- Colin Welch (b. 1924), British journalist: in “The Spectator” (London), July 21, 1967.
