The quote from “Live Not By Lies” by Alexander Solzhenitsyn in 1974 is:

“And he who is not sufficiently courageous even to defend his soul- don't let him be proud of his ``progressive”' views, and don't let him boast that he is an academician or a people's artist, a merited figure, or a general--let him say to himself: I am in the herd, and a coward. It's all the same to me as long as I'm fed and warm.”

Yes, it reminds me of many.

My Lady, I love you! I’m concerned for you!
