Book: Judas

Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Pity there are not so many, we should not waste it in vain.

Someone who is willing to change, ...in whom there is courage to change, there will always be a traitor in the eyes of those who are not able to change who's scared to death of them, does not understand and hates.

In the history of mankind have enough of the brave, ahead of its time and therefore reputed to be traitors or cranks.

The main misfortune of the people, in my opinion, ...not that persecuted and enslaved longed to be free, to spread my shoulders. No. The main evil that enslaved, in fact, in his heart the dream to turn into oppressors of their oppressors. Lusting to be persecuted persecutors. Slaves dream to become masters.

I'm a bit tired of people overwhelmed with feelings. All these feelings are seen me redundant, they do not lead to any good. Life can be much easier if you stop feeling...

- We forgot about that in the world, in addition to the principles and ideals, there is a place for mercy.
- Mercy ...in any case may not be at the expense of principles and ideals.

Eyes ...will never see the light. Almost all people undergo the journey of life from birth to death, with his eyes closed. After all, if even for a moment, we'll open your eyes, immediately you will otorgada of our depths of the great and terrible cry, and we scream and shout, without stopping for a moment. And if we not screaming day and night, it is only because our eyes are closed.

To love men is impossible. The whole world is in your hands for millennia, and you turned it into something disgusting. Into a slaughterhouse. You can only use it. Sometimes even feel sorry for you and try to comfort. For what? I do not know. Probably for your handicap.

This night will not be a full moon.
- Then we'll see the moon waning. Almost all flawed in this world. Almost everything we touch becomes defective.

Loneliness gets up to all sorts of oddities.

Every two or three years I re-read Gogol. He knows almost everything there is to know about human nature, about our nature. He knows how to laugh heartily.

Thanks to the dreamers, may we, sober and rational, is not so ossified in its desperation.

...Jealousy is proof that love is like hatred, because of jealousy come together love and hate.

...Love is very similar to the hatred and close to it in such a large extent that most people can't even imagine. For example, when you love someone or hate someone, in both cases, you're every minute keen to know where he is, who he is, good for him or bad, what is he doing, what he thinks, what he fears.
