For Tomasz
Our homeland is on the verge of collapse … The atmosphere of conflicts, misunderstanding, hatred causes moral degradation, surpasses the limits of toleration. Strikes , the readiness to strike, actions of protest have become a norm of life.
Citizens! … I declare, that today the Military Council of National Salvation has been formed. In accordance with the Constitution, the State Council has imposed martial law all over the country.
General Jaruzelski, Communist Leader of Poland, speaking on December 13, 1981
The winter is yours, but the summer will be ours.
