The world is ruled by power and power is obtained by money.

And I think about my cell at the Pawiak prison. During the first week I felt I would not be able to endure a day without a book, without the circle of light under the parafin lamp in the evening, without a sheet of paper, without you. . . .

There can be no beauty if it is paid for by human injustice, nor truth that passes over injustice in silence, nor moral virtue that condones it.

I risked my life to save lives. I'm not looking for glory. I just want people to know the truth about what happened.

The world is ruled by power and power is obtained by money.

Between two throw-ins in a soccer game, right behind my back, three thousand people had been put to death.

What a curious power words have.
