Book: Abroad

"Selfish" instinct threatens to destroy, if not already destroyed all other life instincts. <...> Unwittingly pulled out the cry: surely it's all there, surely nothing else will? Surely all is lost, all? It was once a time, when told that without ideals a step can not be! Were great poets, great thinkers, and none of them mentioned "skin", none pointed to the principle of self-preservation as the ultimate goal of human endeavor. Yes, it certainly was. So surely these poets, and these thinkers, the Shakespeares, Barony, Cervantes, Dante were people of threat, be abolished?

And somehow, unwittingly, itself felt: Oh, what a terrible thing it is - life! <...> Fear for the "skin" for tomorrow - that's the basic thesis, which is sent to modern Russian people, and the vague expectation of always imminent danger destroys not only the urge to activity, but also to life itself. <...> Not a thirst for life makes you tremble, just instinctive of heart troubles that, in addition to the consciousness cardaminetea sucks and torments. Life itself and hated, and postyle, but as she became attached, we have to stand her. Yes her and I do not think, and think only about this obnoxious sedition, to the extent that all captured, all overshadowed that destroyed even the power to look boldly into the eyes of death. Not tomorrow, sorry, and terribly at the thought that maybe he would and maybe not.

Loneliness makes us think, and we to domenu unusual. Together we can profiledata: to screw, or what, to lie in ambush or in the pub will taketime and will remain one, and will surround you...
- We are very dismayed, chere madame, ' I added. - Home-we turn out-turn out - everybody is trying, as if better happened. Sick to the stomach - not good; there will turn out even worse. Turn Yes sentence: above all, don't worry! Well, we do not doubt, but only seminote prepared: here it was again to turn start!

So I went to bed, having taken two days out of boredom: one of the things that, under certain conditions of life, the bout shall be considered not so much from the point of view of the depravity of the will, as in the sense of an uncontrollable need pained soul...

The main thing that Russian cheating people have more to fear from abroad, being alone, and especially long lasting. Loneliness gives people a break to think - that's the trouble. To think, that is, to think, to question, and Buda is not lost conscience, to feel the pricks of shame.

The modern French bourgeois is neither the heroism nor the ideals have not. He was too heavy, so as not to be frightened at the thought of personal dedication, and too satisfied, to require the extension of horizons. <...> the Bourgeoisie could not without anger to remember that the Prussians had drunk all the wine stored in his cellar, he smoked all his cigars stolen from his dress bookcases, dishes and silver, and even watches with fireplaces. Can he forget the deaths of the children of France, the treacherous surrender of Metz, panic at the very sight of her and armed troops, but to forget the loss of hours for which he paid so many hundred francs, rubis sur ongle - never!

Tradition, in which the main attraction of living mainly focuses on the struggle and finding new horizons with each passing day more and more loses the credit. The bourgeoisie seeks not excitement, but peace, light and understanding and all around good popechenija. In religion he is claiming that God, without any on his part of the effort, motu proprio sent his angels to protect him. In the case of science, he appreciates only applied knowledge, blatantly ignoring all the preparatory theoretical work and providing the researchers of truth to find it at your own risk. <...> In fiction he was an opponent of any psychological complications and tests and requires the author, that he, without abstract language, but with perhaps a great variety of "special signs", explained to him what a body has the heroine of the novel, with whom and when and under what circumstances she made the first, the second and subsequent adultery, which was every time dress, forced himself to beg or give up without talking <...>. Even in their romantic enterprises, he does not tolerate confusion and extra clothes, and insists that everything was done in usual, with no delay time... now!

However, no matter how pleasant satiety, but it has some significant inconveniences. She is much better of a person according to his actions drowsiness, he thought - lethargy. Too well-fed man requires only one thing: that it is less hampered, less set in his way obstacles and occasions for curiosity and struggle. The pleasure in the eyes of the well-fed man acquire value only when they are attained easily, come to him, so to speak, by themselves. We, Russian fed people, all year round eating pancakes, pies and cakes, know something about the spiritual stupor in which a single radiant point in a person's life is a dream, with a retinue of whistles, nasal saverton, uterine dreams and nightmares. That is why, perhaps, we do not have those forms of security that represents the socio-political system in the West. But there are pancakes.

But this is not enough: the amazing progress of medical science has made significant changes in our household, in our, so to speak, basis. Limited to only one example: before, I used to intend man to commit adultery, is now before the lady on my knees and in this position awaiting further instructions. And no involuntary scandals did not arise, even if the husband of the lady was in the next room. Now medical science has discovered that man kneeling, can make an awkward movement and hurt my sciatic nerve. Exactly what recently happened. Just got up a young man on his knees for an application, and suddenly I newswall light and screamed. Of course, the whole household, and before all ran husband. It turned out that the young man had hurt his sciatic nerve! And because this kind of crap occurs in the whole process. Offended husband proves that the sciatic nerve was damaged "by the" innocent wife claims that "up to".

And there was then no defterios, no fever, no heart disease, and was one enemy of the human body: a stroke. So spoke briefly yesterday Sidor Kondratich the evening meal, lay down to rest, and this morning I look, and they were ordered to live long. Actually, I think that disease, and the mortality be developed as enhancements of medical science. Or, in other words, medical science popularitywith disease, making them available to the public.

... known that no one does not emit a lot of natural stench, and how happy people. He! soup he is given such that it will not sell; porridge pot will bring - and there in the middle of the drilled hole, poured the oil; therefore, it could not lose. And so, up to three times a day, not to mention teas and Sbitnev, from which no satiety, but the sweat still breaks through. The belly like a drum, round eyes, goggles - should be the same extra weight somewhere to sell. Here it is near the shops and corrected. And in the shop and the product is suitable for: meat, fowl, fish. The buyer will come: what you have in store like the extra smell? - and he answered: such a product-with; without that not-p I know Moscow almost from the cradle; there is always stank.

... if love tell, and don't like - deny!

But no matter how little attraction it was Clemenceau and the whole situation palatskaya meeting, after all, leaving the room, I could not refrain, so as not to exclaim, that if only we have it! What to do! So we, Russian, the eyes of envious that we can not in the eye of another bitch to see, to imagine the same not to wish. <...> Because some fun in Paris, that's all there is and all you can see everything to say and even povrat. Even in Russian there is a heart playing. And we have nothing at home, therefore, and look at that, and the language is not causing a stir. However, sometimes we happen to hear that in such a place, since the time of king Peas meets some Commission - so let him her seat!

... probably someone from the Russian "gay people" as a joke assured you that servitude is the lot of all the Russian on the ground. But it is wrong. Hard labor in Russian is called a way of life that Pravovaya exclusively to people not doing the overbearing regulations. For example, if you ordered in the street to smoke, and I smoke - hard labor! If not ordered in the public garden pond to catch fish and I catch the hard labor! <...> I, but firmly. All the rest of the Russian inhabitants that are not fordirect, and steadily perform the authoritative injunctions granted - to live happily ever after.
