Fame in the West was no protection. ||5: Even a lone independent-minded priest was an existential—and intolerable—threat for the brittle Soviet leadership. ||6: The fledgling dissident movement was systematically crushed—by imprisonment, exile, coercive psychiatry or ferocious pressure on family members.

||1:德米特里·杜德科神父开始认识到前苏联大的系统正是国家症结所在。||2:1977年，他向“纽约时报”讲道，说“罪恶的风暴”搅得这个国家天翻地覆。||3:“我们的国家腐败透顶，家庭支离破碎，我们的国家此时就像一个醉汉，卖国贼之间互相叛变。”他没说错。||4:不过，70年代后期国际紧张关系不再处在缓和状态，西方国家不再顾及名声。||5:在脆弱不堪的前苏联领导层面看来，甚至一个单独具有独立思想的神父也成了实实在在并且不能再坐视不管的威胁。||6:异见运动还没孵化就遭到有计划的打击——监禁、流放、强加精神病罪名亦或异见者家人承受着不堪重负的压力。
