Memory Eternal!
The simplest and most accessible key to our self-neglected liberation lies right here: Personal non-participation in lies.
Though lies may conceal everything, though lies embrace everything, they will not do so with any help from me.
This opens a breach in the imaginary encirclement caused by our inaction. It is the easiest thing to do for us, but the most devastating for the lies. Because when people renounce lies it simply cuts short their existence. Like an infection, they can exist only in a living organism.
We do not exhort ourselves. We have not sufficiently matured to march into the squares and shout the truth our loud or to express aloud what we think. It's not necessary. It's dangerous.
But let us refuse to say that which we do not think. This is our path, the easiest and most accessible one, which takes into account our inherent cowardice, already well rooted.
So in our timidity, let each of us make a choice: Whether consciously, to remain a servant of falsehood, or to shrug off the lies and become an honest man worthy of respect both by one's children and contemporaries.
