"The freedom of this nation was paid for dearly for us to be anyone's slaves. And no one has the right to treat us as slaves. No one has the right to tell us that we are mercenaries and that we are second-class citizens."
"It's time to step out of our comfort zones so we can step out of this twilight zone."
"I have three grandsons and two granddaughters. Those are five fundamental reasons... That was my motivation to join ProGlas. I want them to live here, and to want to live here. I don't have a more important reason than that. And what is the precondition for them to stay here? Well, normalcy."
"When the state loses the battle against dictators, society becomes a jungle. I have come together with these people to say that I do not want to live in a jungle. I want to live in a normal Serbia."
"ProGlas emerged as an attempt at collective awakening from apathy. Fourteen of us gathered with the idea that change is possible, that we can live in this country, that we can change the consciousness and conscience of this society."
"I don't believe in magic wands, but I believe in people's consciousness. It's difficult to bring about change in abnormal circumstances, where those in power are willing to do anything to defend their positions. But, I believe that the consciousness and persistence of citizens will eventually lead to change."
We have come to the realization that this is not a decent life and state, that we lack the rotation of power, justice, equality. And that such a life is not acceptable, not good, nor necessary - it can be changed, if voices are raised.
"ProGlas is an attempt to awaken not only the consciousness of citizens, but also to give them encouragement. Fear is cured by the unity of people who are endangered."
"ProGlas was born with the idea of awakening suppressed and dormant energy that must come to the surface. None of us needs to perform miracles. If everyone does as much as they can, it will be more than enough to fundamentally change this country."
"We simply want to tell people - go out and take your life and destiny into your own hands."
"The essence of democracy is to ask the citizens in voting, as they thus choose their future. They choose who will be their servants. It's not power when you mistreat citizens in your own country. Power is serving the people who elected you."
"We've tried to create a collective alarm clock. But, not the kind where you have a 'snooze' button, so that if we fall asleep, it reminds us before the next elections. This alarm clock will ring and buzz until enough of us wake up, rise, and fundamentally change this system."
"The noose is tightening. Not only around our state, but also around every local community, and even every family. Every time I think it can't get any worse, I see something that convinces me otherwise. So, I'll quote: evil flourishes when good people do nothing. Let's do something. We are responsible for it."
"Our intention is to encourage two groups of citizens - the anesthetized and the intimidated. To show the former that they can, and the latter that they dare to change the twisted system in which they live."
