         BREAKING THE SILENCE: POLITICAL ELECTRICITY
         ###########################################

This official interpretation consequently merges with reality. A
general and all-embracing lie begins to predominate; people begin
adapting to it, and everyone in some part of their lives
compromises with the lie or coexists with it. Under these
conditions, to assert the truth, to behave authentically by
breaking through the all-englobing web of lies -in spite of
everthing, including the risk that one might find oneself up
against the whole world- is an act of extraordinary political
importance.

                    Czech playwright VACLAV HAVEL
TZ -4-25
