" "I can't agree to war in my mind as the only solution, I can't force myself to hate, I can't believe that weapons, killing, revenge, hatred, that the accumulation of evil will ever be able to solve anything... The punishment prepared for me by my city, my only city, and my theater, i.e. I don't think I deserved the only theater that I considered my own, the punishment they prepared for me, because I did what I think should always be done: believing in people and in our profession, which must unite people, not separate them... Regardless of whether we live in one, five or fifty countries, let us not forget about people, about each one individually, regardless of which side of this Wall of ours the person in question finds himself on... I am sending this letter into the void, into the darkness, not knowing who will read it and how, or in what way it can be abused. It will probably serve as a dam for the eternally hungry propaganda beast. Maybe someone will read it with a pure heart. I will be grateful to such a man.

Additional quotes by Mira Furlan
Rulers try to keep their subjects in the belief that they have no choice but to do so. And what if they do? What if it is still possible to make a choice in a situation in which there is supposedly no choice? This very idea is dangerous to the system and therefore subversive. But this very thought is the path to freedom.
People have the need to unite in camps, in groups, whether by religious, national, racial or class affiliation. When one looks from a slightly further, slightly higher perspective, one cannot help but notice that all these groupings are artificially fabricated, supposedly in the name of unity, but in fact in the name of division. And, as we may remember, the ancient Romans wisely said: "Divide and rule". While people are divided and exterminate each other because of this or that sentence in the Qur'an or the Bible, some others steal and steal everything they can get their hands on. I think that this fact, at least when it comes to "our" (mine certainly wasn't!) war in the nineties, is slowly reaching the brain of the so-called common man. But now it's too late: everything has already been sold out and resold and looted and devastated.

It's hard to start over, it's hard to make cuts, it's hard to lose friends and tear the fabric of your life. Emigration makes one feel as if one has been launched into an empty space and is now floating aimlessly on it. And on the other hand, it is, of course, a big, interesting adventure, trying out oneself in another language, in another space, gathering experiences that are not given to others, it is in a way conquering freedom. The freedom we strive for, but which is infinitely difficult and tiring.
