Brainless animal, I felt not the slightest sympathy. He lifted his head, met my gaze and must have realized who I am. Presumably, he was warned about my arrival in his primitive understanding, I was supposed to avenge him, to repay the father's blood. We had a special kind of communication; conscious of this, I watched his face, eyes locked; I was slowly filled with hatred, and from this pleasant and strong feelings, it becomes easier to breathe. If I were armed, I'd have killed him without hesitation. Killing such vermin do not just didn't seem a crime, but seemed to act positive, beneficial.

In thirteen years, all the impulses of man are manifest with maximum power, they then start to weaken gradually or issued in certain behavioral patterns in these shapes frozen forever. The power of the initial explosion is that the outcome of the conflict may for many years remain obscure; in electrodynamics is called the transition state. But, gradually, the vibrations slowed, turning into long wave, melancholic and tender, and this is when all is said and life is only a preparation for death. The same can be expressed more crudely and priblizitelno, if you say that an adult is tamed teen.

He said - and in a sense, really believed in it, - that increase of information flow inside companies is in itself beneficial. That freedom is the ability to set a variety of relationships between people, projects, organizations, services. In his opinion, the freedom expressed in the maximum choice. Using a metaphor borrowed from the mechanics of solids, he called these choices degrees of freedom.

However, I had the opportunity to learn that human beings often feel compelled to differ, showing some small, annoying features, flaws, traits and so forth, probably with the purpose to force the interlocutors to perceive them as a full-fledged personality.

If I could spend my life reading, I have nothing else, and I would not; I knew that in seven years. The fabric of the surrounding world hurts and repels; and it is unlikely that it can be mitigated. I think I would be better suited to a life lived reading. But such a life I did not get.

When you look into the past, there is always the impression - perhaps false - a kind of predestination.

For starters, a Palestinian terrorist claimed that in metaphysical terms the value of the hostage is equal to zero (for incorrect), but is not negative: a negative value would be a Jew; therefore, its elimination is not desirable, but simply irrelevant. On the contrary, in terms of economic hostage has significant value, as is the citizen of the rich States, moreover, always supporting his subjects. Formulating these assumptions, a Palestinian terrorist has begun a series of experiments. First, he pulled the hostage a tooth (bare hands), and then stated that its market value has not changed. Then he did the same operation with a fingernail, this time armed with pincers. Later in the conversation entered a second terrorist, and between the Palestinians unfolded a brief discussion in a more or less Darwinian manner. In the end they tore the hostage testicles, not forgetting to carefully treat the wound to prevent his premature death. Both came to the conclusion that, because the operation changed only the biological value of a hostage; his metaphysical value remains equal to zero, and the market remained very high. In short, the farther the more than Pascal was the dialogue and the less bearable - visuals; by the way, I was surprised to realize how inexpensive tricks used in the films "Gore".

Sexual pleasure is not only superior in sophistication and power all other pleasures given by life; it is not just the only pleasure, without effecting any damage to the body, on the contrary, helps to maintain it in the highest level of vital energy; it is actually the only pleasure and the sole purpose of human existence, and all the others - delicious food, tobacco, alcohol, drugs is just ridiculous, desperate compensatory measures, mini-suicides, cowardly hiding his true identity, attempts to quickly destroy the body, lost access to the only pleasure.
