We hold our heads high, despite the price we have paid, because freedom is priceless.
We respect the dignity and the rights of every man and every nation.

It is hardly possible to build anything if frustration, bitterness and a mood of helplessness prevail.
The sole and basic source of our strength is the solidarity of workers, peasants and the intelligentsia, the solidarity of the nation, the solidarity of people who seek to live in dignity, truth, and in harmony with their conscience.
Everyone wants a voice in human freedom. There's a fire burning inside all of us.
