Max Frisch. Stiller (№ 200820)

People are friends because it is not devoid of pleasures, and for everything else there is a psychiatrist, something like mechanics servicing garages inner life and feelings, in case if you find damage, a hole, which he patched up can't. Friends are not supposed to burden the sad stories, sad expression. And not worth it. Still a soul they will not find anything but the standard, non-committal optimism.
