Branded Mind

Famous quotes containing the words branded and/or mind:

    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. You are cast out of the existing structures and placed in a position of conflict with them. It begins as an attempt to do your work well, and ends with being branded an enemy of society.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    God of the people,
    no clod is too base for your thought,
    who made all will not cripple
    the mind with injunction.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
