\"Lewy<\/p>\n

Let us look at this woman. She doesn’t say much, rather she uses gestures, looped ticks, sudden changes of emotional states. She provokes mocking and even angry reactions from people watching her. We feel the violence that is growing every minute, mainly among loved ones, in the family. (\u2026) Why Kleczewska is doing this to us? Maybe to lead us all to Pallas Athena, like Orestes pursued by the Erinyes, so that she would free us from our guilt. So that we can leave the past behind with all our baggage, accusations, meanness. So that \u2018\u0141askawe\u2019 [the Gracious] let us be.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Lewy<\/p>\n

(\u2026) tireless work of convincing that one can be a good citizen of one’s region, country and Europe all at the same time. For bringing, in his person, the forgotten virtues of an outstanding statesman to Polish and European politics: integrity, appreciation for work and education, reliability; ensuring that the thought precedes the word; elegance and courtesy as well as unconditional respect for each interlocutor.<\/em><\/p>\n
