Quote by John Kerr

“Načež hlas v mém nitru pronesl: Je to umění. Překvapilo mě to. Nikdy mě nenapadlo, že to, co píši, má něco společného s uměním. Pak mě ale napadlo: Mé nevědomí možná utváří osobnost, která není já, která však naléhavě usiluje o vyjádření. Zcela bezpečně jsem věděl, že ten hlas vyšel z ženy. Poznal jsem hlas jedné pacientky, nadané psychopatky se silným přenosem na mne. V mé mysli se stala živou postavou.”

“Questo libro l’ho scritto in forma di fiaba, senza puntare il dito perché altrimenti avrei dovuto fare un saggio e un saggio mi avrebbe sconquassato l’anima, avrei puntato il dito, avrei inveito, avrei insultato questi farabutti che fecero duemila morti ed ero stanco di insultare, sono stanco di fare cagnara. Allora ho scritto in forma di fiaba, che fa ancora più male perché era gente inerme che è stata spazzata via.”

“Operation Stronghold is a plan for defending a police department from attack. It was evidently developed for dealing with terrorist attacks and other such emergencies but in practice is now used whenever the authorities want to keep lawyers, human rights activists, journalists, or anybody else out of a police precinct. If you later complain your lawyer was not allowed to see you, the Ministry of the Interior routinely replies, "At this time training exercises were underway, and Operation Stronghold was being rehearsed. Only officers and staff of the police department were admitted to or allowed to leave the site." They practice Operation Stronghold whenever I'm arrested.”

“If the moderns really want a simple religion of love, they must look for it in the Athanasian Creed. The truth is that the trumpet of true Christianity, the challenge of the charities and simplicities of Bethlehem or Christmas Day never rang out more arrestingly and unmistakably than in the defiance of Athanasius to the cold compromise of the Arians. It was emphatically he who really was fighting for a God of Love against a God of colourless and remote cosmic control; the God of the stoics and the agnostics. It was emphatically he who was fighting for the Holy Child against the grey deity of the Pharisees and the Sadducees. He was fighting for that very balance of beautiful interdependence and intimacy, in the very Trinity of the Divine Nature, that draws our hearts to the Trinity of the Holy Family. His dogma, if the phrase be not misunderstood, turns even God into a Holy Family.”
