Antonin Kratochvil Quotes
I was repelled by the sleazy reality of the totalitarian countries: politicians were shameless.

I saw all this and tried to show it in my pictures as simply and straightforwardly as I could. All I wanted to do was record how all these poor people adapted to lies and suffering, how they got used to it, how, in fact they were bound to miss it when it was over.
