Sven Lindqvist Quotes

I Am In Good Company, Simply Following Those In Front Of Me And Knowing Others Are Following Behind. We Are On Our Way Up A Narrow Staircase. The Bannister Is A Thick Rope Suggesting Safety. The Stairs Go Around And Around Inside A Church Tower; Or Perhaps It Is A Minaret? The Whorls Of The Staircase Grow Narrower And Narrower, But As There Are So Many People Behind There Is No Longer Any Possibility Of Turning Around Or Even Stopping. The Pressure From Behind Foeces Me On. The Staircase Suddenly Stops At A Garbage Chute In The Wall. When I Open The Hatch And Squeeze My Way Through The Hole, I Find Myself On The Outside Of The Tower. The Rope Has Dissappeared. It Is Totally Dark. I Cling On To The Slippery, Icy Wall Of The Tower While Vainly Trying To Find A Foothold In The Emptiness.
