“The question is wholly other, deeper and equally relevant to all: whether we shall, by whatever means, succeed in reconstituting the natural world as the true terrain of politics, rehabilitating the personal experience of human beings as the initial measure of things, placing morality above politics and responsibility above our desires, in making human community meaningful, in returning content to human speech, in reconstituting, as the focus of all social action, the autonomous, integral, and dignified human "I."” WorldHumansMeanActionDesireSocialCommunityNaturalHuman BeingsResponsibilityFocusMoralitySucceedSpeechMeaningfulSustainabilityInitialsNatural WorldPersonal ExperiencesAutonomousTerrainSocial Action Author:Vaclav Havel
