"You have to burn like a bonfire. Like someone who knows that they are going to be burned for something, and they can't or don't want to do anything about it. It is not enough to know the truth, it is not enough to write it down, it is not enough to say it bravely: you also have to burn for it.

You have to burn like a bonfire. Like someone who knows that they are going to be burned for something, and they can't or don't want to do anything about it. It is not enough to know the truth, it is not enough to write it down, it is not enough to say it bravely: you also have to burn for it.
""Mint a máglyán, úgy kell égni. Mint aki tudja, hogy valamiért égetik el, s nem tehet, nem is akar tenni semmit ellene. Nem elég megismerni az igazságot, nem elég megszövegezni, nem elég bátran kimondani: égni is kell érette."
