"She was blamed for going to church. She already had problems at the grammar school, there were anonymous letters that we went to church, that she was a believer. I was invited to Žamberk, there was a grammar school there. And there the class teacher told me how to deal with it, that it was terrible that they didn't have such a student yet and that how to deal with it in order to admit her to that school. I said, 'Professor, I'm sad, but use that it's a lie, that we're forcing her to church, that she doesn't want to go to church.' So he thanked me. And so he got to college. "

"Surely you remember, I will never forget that - under the symbol of the Czech linden emblem, Mečiar and our former president Klaus sat there and there they agreed on how Czechoslovakia would break up, and it had already begun there that Czechoslovakia must split. I don't think it would have happened if they let people vote. "

"I remember that time. I had a very difficult time because the Germans were waiting for orders in our village before they went east to fight until they continued east and did what they wanted. They shot whoever they wanted, for example. Well, then they came once. And they said we should leave the village in an hour and go to the death transport. So we left the village and three kilometres from the village we suddenly saw it was on fire. Well, we went in the transport and the people near Prešov saved us. In the morning, when they put us in the transport, the people said we were gone, so we stayed there. It wasn't until after the war that we returned. We found a home completely levelled with the ground, the whole village burned down, just the church remained there. "
