I have said it so often: if the West does not stabilize the East, the East will destabilize the West. - Václav Havel

A genuinely fundamental and hopeful improvement in "systems" cannot happen without a significant shift in human consciousness.

Truth lies not only in what is said, but also in who says it, to whom, why, how and under what circumstances.

The real question is whether the brighter future is really always so distant. What if, on the contrary, it has been here for a long time already, and only our own blindness and weakness has prevented us from seeing it around us and within us, and kept us from developing it?
