Civilization must be based on life. We should never forget that human life was created in and for millions of centuries, was nourished by primitive wildness. We cannot separate ourselves from this ancestral background.

When it comes to human dignity, we cannot make compromises.

But we cannot rely on memorials and museums alone. We can tell ourselves we will never forget and we likely won't. But we need to make sure that we teach history to those who never had the opportunity to remember in the first place.

One must never forget that life is unfair. But sometimes, with a bit of luck, this works in your favour.

Real freedom lies in wildness, not civilization.

Elephants and grandchildren never forget.
