Milan Kundera has said, and I think this is so true, he said, "The struggle of people against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting." And for places like Pakistan that are violent and are repressive through authoritarian rule, whether military or civilian elected, what we have in a lot of these countries is we have our words and our memories. The minute you surrender that I think it's game over.
