  Piękny dzień, mimo wszystko
Ponieważ to zacności osoba i bardzo ją szanuję, podszedłem, zagadałem, co tam słychać w Ministerstwie Prawdy, pani Ewa odpowiedziała coś po swojemu, łagodnie i dowcipnie, i tak sobie zaczęliśmy rozmowę, gdy nagle z kłębiącego się opodal tłumku wyskoczyła jakaś pani o wyglądzie nauczycielki od matematyki, i to takiej ze szkoły prowadzonej przez zakonnice.
Pani Ewa, chyba równie zaskoczona, wyrwała rękę swojej bonie, ale ta chwyciła ją znowu i pociągnęła, teraz już wyraźnie się siłując, w stronę swojej grupki.

  The Accommodations of Adam Michnik
She is full of anger — against Michnik, against Walesa, against Gen. Wojciech Jaruzelski, the stiff soldier in dark glasses who imposed martial law in 1981.
Michnik applauds Jaruzelski, above all, for grasping perestroika's possibilities and steering Poland toward the 1989 "round-table" talks between the regime and Solidarity officials that opened the way for a peaceful transition.
The Michnik doctrine may be summed up as follows: At the end of a war — and dictatorships leave the same sort of divisions as civil war — the priority must be to rebuild the peace.

 TEATR ÓSMEGO DNIA
Ewa Wójciak: It was clear that we wanted to live on theatre and for theatre, but it was not quite clear what it meant.
In those years it was not being an actor or realizing some successful plays that we understood as the notion of theatre; what we did understand by it was creating a new social and artistic reality.
After our performance "No Man's Land", Adam Michnik said that we were a sort of an "archpolish theatre able to create a universal subject from the outlook greatly concentrated on Polish character." The basic pleasure of our work has been to write new quasi-dramas, spectacles which also carried a new text in them.

 Democracy at the Periphery: SR, April 2004
From Michnik's opinions it also follows that if society was "unprepared" for Liberalism, it should be changed, and changed quickly.
Here another contradiction emerges: the state is supposed to be neutral vis-a-vis the citizenry, yet it is somehow assumed that it should educate society and make it fit for Liberal democracy.
It is possible that the left-liberal writers such as Adam Michnik contributed to the fact that nationalism did not take hold in Poland, that Poland did not become a confessional state, that the Communists were not lynched, that democratic freedoms were not curtailed, and that the rights of minorities were not violated.
