"I was never an opponent of communism. The problem is that when we started to fight—it was 1984—it seemed certain that the Brezhnevite 'disciplinarian-sanatorian' regime would be around for very long. We did not fight it for 'democracy' and of course not for capitalism, but for the victory of genuine communist ideals, which were discredited in the last years of Soviet power." —Egor Letov
