They must wait several weeks before a mass
Takes off one peck of purgatorial coals,
Because, till people know what’s come to pass,

“You do not become a “dissident” just because you decide one day to take up this most unusual career. You are thrown into it by your personal sense of responsibility, combined with a complex set of external circumstances.

—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
