Character: Ivan Zhilin

... the closer you are to the animal, the more you will want to keep it on the DL.

We kissed in a Large Park, and then on the embankment under the white statues, and I walked her home and we kissed long in the front, and the stairs all the time why people were walking, although it was too late. And she was very afraid that suddenly passes by her mother and asks: "what are you doing here, Val, and who is this young man?" It was summer, during the white nights. <...> Then it seemed that the most important thing that it will always - winter and summer, and on the embankment under the white statues and in the Big Park, and in the theater, where she was very beautiful in a black dress with white collar and all the time pushed me in the side, so I'm not laughing too loud. But one day she came as we agreed and I agreed on the Videophone again, and she again came and stopped writing me letters when I went back to School. I still do not believe, and wrote long letters, very stupid, but then I did not know that they are stupid.

We are all a little horse, earnestly said Zhilin. - Each of us is a horse. Is life all mistakes. Her Majesty life. This blessed bastard.

- Listen, Joyce, - said Ivan. - Here is a Russian boy asks, what will you do when you get rich?
For some time Joyce looked at Yura.
"Okay," he said. I know what the answer is waiting for the boy. So I will ask. The boy will grow up and become an adult man. All his life he will deal with their... how you say... interesting work. But he will grow old and can no longer work. Then what he will do with this boy?

Jura said with despair: I'll try to die sooner than I will be able to work... - bartender's Eyebrows climbed his forehead, he anxiously looked back at Ivan. In utter confusion Yura said: - And generally, I think that the most important thing for man it is beautiful to die!

Where a General principle is confronted with the principle of the personal - where life ends and begins the difficult simple. That's life.

Well, it's not a simple life? Chose a pattern and go for it. But the principles are so good that they age. They age faster than people, and humans remain the only ones that dictated history.

Fish searches where more deeply, and people worse. Understand, Yuri? All is good here. Anxiety training, accident make-believe. But in some places worse. Much worse. This is where you should go, and not wait until you will lead... are You listening to me, rookie? According to the instructions you had to listen.
