Solzhenitsyn was critical of NATO's eastward expansion towards Russia's borders.[129] In 2006, Solzhenitsyn accused NATO of trying to bring Russia under its control; he claimed this was visible because of its "ideological support for the 'colour revolutions' and the paradoxical forcing of North Atlantic interests on Central Asia".[129] In a 2007 interview with Der Spiegel he stated "This was especially painful in the case of Ukraine, a country whose closeness to Russia is defined by literally millions of family ties among our peoples, relatives living on different sides of the national border. At one fell stroke, these families could be torn apart by a new dividing line, the border of a military bloc."[121]

Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me.
"Zwei Dinge erfüllen das Gemüt mit immer neuer und zunehmenden Bewunderung und Ehrfurcht, je öfter und anhaltender sich das Nachdenken damit beschäftigt: Der bestirnte Himmel über mir, und das moralische Gesetz in mir." - Immanuel Kant, Kritik der praktischen Vernunft, Riga: Hartknoch 1788.

This morning I had a little chat with an old French biker about the voting results in France and he told me this quote:
“Si voter changeait quelque chose, il y a longtemps que ça serait interdit.“ -Coluche
👌
compare:
-Mark Twain
If voting made a difference, they wouldn’t let us do it
-Emma Goldman
If voting changed anything, they’d make it illegal
“La différence qu'il y a entre les oiseaux et les hommes politiques, c'est que de temps en temps les oiseaux s'arrêtent de voler !”
