How should an intruder among philosophers behave? Discretely, moderately. The author did not succeed in doing this. The article dedicated to Professor Barbara Skarga is long and boisterous. It contains: (a) a letter to Professor that includes ten questions, as 'in philosophy, questions are more important', (b) the 'confession' he made before the confessional in UMCS in Lublin on a similar occasion as this one, namely after he had received a beautiful 'liber amicorum' on his 85th birthday and 60th anniversary of work in journalism. The confession is the author way through life: it is the Jewish fate and family (from the hope of liberation till the exodus in 1968); it is the Polish culture, meetings with Giedroyc's 'Kultura' and Nowak's 'Free Europe'; it is 'Le Soir' and 'Gazeta Wyborcza', which is to say journalism, his place in the eye of the information storm, service to a cause of free thought and free voice. In Poland and everywhere.
