Summary / Abstract:
ENIn reality there is no honor in delusion. One will not be able to continue, having one day recognized that one has no talent, that one is not a dancer, that one has been dishonest with oneself. One will not be able to continue, having one day recognized that the leader or the party for which one has been lighting is corrupt and that its slogans and program merely deceitful propaganda. If one continues to light a cause one knows is lost, one does so to demonstrate to oneself and to one’s comrades and to those as yet unborn that the cause that is winning is ignoble. [Extract, p. 302]
