Book: Jenny Gerhardt. Page 1

Although he pretended to easily accept the blows of fate, they hurt him. He hadn't been defeated in so long... too long ago.

Why complain, worry, speculate? Whatever he does, life will steadily move forward, obeying its own laws.

She also thought about joining some charitable society. However, she did not understand the new theory that was then in vogue, according to which it is only necessary to teach people to get out of a difficult situation on their own. Jenny felt that if a poor man asked for help, he needed help without going into arguments about how much he deserved it.

Life sometimes seems cruel, but the beauty of nature is enduring.

Everywhere you look - only illusions, it is not difficult to prove. Or maybe life in general is just an illusion? In any case, it is very similar to a dream, sometimes a bad dream.

If death comes, he is ready for it. He will meet her without complaint, without a fight. After all, life in most of its manifestations is just a stupid comedy.

In the life of every thinking man there comes a time when he looks back at the past and asks himself what he is and in mental, moral and physical, and financially. It happens when reckless youth gusts are already behind when first independent steps and the efforts already made and all he was striving for and have achieved, is getting in your eyes wrong and fragile. And in the minds of many creeps in the searing soul the idea about the vanity of life - the idea that best expressed the book of Ecclesiastes.

In the world around us life of all members of the animal Kingdom takes place in a certain area or environment, like outside, they could exist on the planet, which is due to the immutable law revolves around the Sun. So, the fish die, leaving the water element, and the bird is paying a dear price for attempting to invade the Kingdom of fish. All living creatures, from aphids, parasitic flower, to monsters of the rainforest and the sea indicate that the nature of limiting their activities to a particular environment; and it remains for us only to note how absurd and fatal consequences result all sorts of attempts to escape from it.
However, in relation to a person this theory of limited scope is not confirmed as clearly. The laws that govern social life, not yet fully understood and do not give grounds for generalizations. And yet the opinions, demands and judgments of the society also serve as borders, a very real, though intangible. When a man or woman sin - in other words, out of line than the circle, is prepared for them the punishment is not like what catches the bird, intending to live underwater, or wild animal that wandered into the place where we live. They are not waiting for immediate death. People just brow creases, or smile sarcastically, or angrily splashnet hands. And yet the sphere of public life outlined for each so clearly that anyone leaving it, is doomed. People born and raised in varying environments, unfit for existence outside of it. He is like a bird, accustomed to a certain density of air and unable to enjoy life in a denser or more rarefied atmosphere.

It's nice to know that there is a heaven, afraid of the idea that there is a hell.

There are those rare, special people who come into the world, not knowing why, and leave this life, so do not understand anything.

Every weakness, even the Ghost of weakness frightens people. They unconsciously shy away from losers, avoid them like the fear of contagion.

Every house primarily rests on the mother, but understand it only when it is near the end.

We all more or less pawns. We dispose of forces over which we have no control.

That'd be a shame to die without getting what you want.
