We work to acquire the necessary flavors, and proper feeling vyuzivame by heart. Price of endless suffering we learn to love whiskey and cigars, high art and classical music. In the same period of time we admire Byron and drink sweet champagne: twenty years later becomes fashionable to prefer Shelley, and dry champagne.

The idea existed before the invention of the printing press, and the people who wrote the best hundred books never read them. The book takes its place in the world, but they are not the purpose of the universe. Books should stand side by side with my steak and roast lamb, the smell of the sea, a touch of the hand, a reminder of past hopes and all the other components of the overall outcome of our seventy years. We're talking about books like they're the voice of life itself, whereas they are only its faint echo.

What would become of literature without human stupidity, and without sin? And what is literary work? After all, being a writer means to earn their living digging through the garbage heap of human misery. Imagine, if you can, a perfect world, a world where adults never say anything stupid and do not act recklessly, where little boys never acting up and children do not make awkward remarks; where dogs never fight and cats don't ask night concerts; where the husband is never under the Shoe of his wife and mother-in-law not to nag sister-in-law; where men never go to bed in boots and sailors do not swear; where plumbers to regularly perform their work and old maids don't dress like a young girl; where the blacks never steal chickens, and a man full of dignity, not suffering from sea sickness. Without it - that will be your humor and wit?.. Imagine a world where hearts never get sick of wounds and the lips do not curl in pain; where eyes never rumanetsa tears, my legs are tired and stomachs are never empty! Without it - what's left of your pathetic outpourings? Imagine a world where men always love only one wife, and, moreover, that is the one you want; where women allow themselves only to kiss her husband; where the hearts of men are never violent, and thought women impure; where there is neither hatred nor envy, nor lust, nor despair! Where you will get all of your love scenes, entanglements, subtle psychological analysis?

Always be gullible. However, be prepared for the unexpected. If you are not absolutely sure how you will be received, try a little wet. Why people prefer wet cat dry - I could never understand, but undeniable wet cat immediately let the house and let it warm up, then dry the cat can spray from a garden hose. And eat a piece of stale bread, if you're able to do it if you offer. Human beings are always shocked to the core at the sight of a cat that eats stale bread.
