Author of quotes: Vasily Vasilyevich Rozanov. Page 4

... love there is hope, and hope already has love to do with what hopes. And don't take wings of love: it always flies. She's always an angel, and everyone.

Never reproach your love.
Parents: see if you love children, do not tell them what is still "time to love". They love and then love, and then came their "time".

Shoemaker drunk Yes drunk pop all of Russia. Sober only official, and even then under duress. From the sobriety he's incredibly bored, angry seeking him and doing nothing.

So there was prostitution and "impossible marriage".

Come to me (if ever come) gentle, those who mourn, mournful, exhausted. Tortured. Come slut (weak)... But not drunk... And I tell them I always was as weak as all of you, and even weaker than you, and lascivious, and lustful. But my soul always cried about his weakness. Because I wanted to be faithful and strong, straight and decent... Only the majestic never wanted to be...
"Let's Ustronie the Lord's Supper... Supper clean one day out of seven without fornication... And sing our songs, songs of Human Weakness, Human Sorrow songs, songs of Human Unworthiness.

The absence of the state and innate to him the failure, and the lack of homeland and also the inability to "have their homeland", and is the source of individual power of the Jews and their success in all countries on all fields. That colossal energy and immeasurable extent of the diligence which the Russians and the French spent on their "ship" and "Jew" to "province" and "departments" on the office and civil counseling, the Jews will not have been spent: and thrown into private business, private entrepreneurship. And while we have in each individual case a glimmer of a candle, they have a flaming fire.

After Gogol, Shchedrin, Nekrasov and absolutely no enthusiasm in Russia. Could be just the enthusiasm for the destruction of Russia.<...> Yes, if you will, choking delighted to quote at every step of nefarious types and pribautochki Shchedrin and blame each individual person in Russia, in the homeland, and throughout it to predict the failure and a curse in every place and in every hour, you then called the "idealist-writer", who writes "the blood of the heart and the juice of the nerves"... <...> What to do in this Bedlam, not as... with arms crossed to watch and wait.

How to fix sin sin - the theme of revolution. Combing and sin more bitter than improving.

And do not people believe in God, fate and the Hand. But He pulls for the ear not only of believers, but not believers in Him.

The revolutionaries take the fact that they are honest. "I want to shoot in the belly" - and shoots. Before that no one lacks spirit. And they are winning. <...> And the victory of the revolutionaries, or their 50-year success is based on the fact that they - the inhuman, and the "old order", of which "bastard", they destroy, remember "the cross on himself" and decided to put off the image of a human. They are naked. The old system - in clothes. And they are so and "breathe", as the old system did not allow themselves too, "to expose".

Without believing in yourself you can't be strong. But faith in itself is bottled in a person indiscretion. To resolve this contradiction is one of the most difficult tasks of life and personality.

As the cancer grows and all the breaks themselves, destroys everything, and sucking force of the body, and there is no force to stop her: so socialism. It's an exhausting dream, unfeasible, hopeless, but which absorbs all the living forces in himself, the youth, the schoolboy, the schoolgirl. It fascinates the most ideal in their composition: and drags the unfortunates to the gallows - while they are convinced that they brought happiness. And in one generation, and another, third.

And it is even the opposite of slow, engineering work on happiness.

- No, why: we sit in the hungry steppe and dream about how the children of our great-grandchildren will fly through the air on wings, and then it will be easy to fly even to distant watering hole.

Surprised Tolstoy, Dostoevsky touches.
Every work of Tolstoy is building. Whatever you read or not even started it to write ("excerpts", "start") - he builds. Everywhere a hammer, a plumb line, measure, plan, "conceived and resolved". Already from the beginning of all of his work is, in essence, to the end built. And in all this no arrows (in essence, no heart).
Dostoevsky - the rider in the desert, with a quiver of arrows. And blood drips, where does its arrow. Dostoevsky roads man. Here "expensive"-that nothing in the Large. Forever "urges", well, let it is followed by "convinced". From "belief" nothing comes out except the stop paper and collect the paper, library, shop, newspaper dispute in a case, the metal of the monument. And Dostoevsky lives in us. His music will never die.

And all this choking. <...>
God created love. Adam and eve were in love... Love of the ancient "law of marriage". <...>
And follow this, priests; or, in any case, you will not obey. Will kill for it, and yet you will not obey: the word of Scripture - "love is stronger then and death."
