My years in jail were a bit like a workshop for my - that actually forged my way of thinking and my values.

There are those who believe that power is up above, and they don't notice that it's actually in the hearts of the great masses.

All my life I've been rowing against the tide. What can I do? It seems I was born that way.

I'm just sick of the way things are. We're in an age in which we can't live without accepting the logic of the market. Contemporary politics is all about short-term pragmatism. We have abandoned religion and philosophy... What we have left is the automatisation of doing what the market tells us.

I'll shout it if they want: Down with isms! Up with a Left that is capable of thinking outside the box! In other words, I am more than completely cured of simplifications, of dividing the world into good and evil, of thinking in black and white. I have repented!

If you don't have many possessions, then you don't need to work all your life like a slave to sustain them, and therefore you have more time for yourself.
