Quotes by Aki Ollikainen (?)

“من سيخبر الطفل بأنه لا وجود للحرية الحقيقية بالخارج؟ أننا كلما إقتربنا من الحرية ، كلما تمسكنا أكثر بالقيود التي نضعهاعلى أيدينا . نحن نطارد السراب مدفوعين بالقهر . طول القيد يحدد مدى حريتنا ، فقط إذا ما رضينا بنصيبنا . استطعنا أن نعيش بدون أن تضايقنا قيودنا . لكن رغباتنا هي أثقل قيودنا . وعندما نميتها ، لا نعود بحاجة إلى المقاومة”
― Aki Ollikainen, Nälkävuosi
