The great good is to believe. And love. A dog without such faith is no longer a dog, but a free wolf or (worse) a stray dog. Of these two possibilities, each dog chooses if he has ceased to believe the owner and left him or if he was expelled.

She then can no longer be a free wolf or an ordinary stray dog, but will remain the same dog, loyal and faithful to a lost friend, but lonely for the rest of her life.

All eyes were on Professor Azur.
"I confess that I love fairy tales very much," he began, and mischievous lights flashed in his eyes. - In fairy tales, the hero is often asked to choose one path out of three. In my opinion, my esteemed colleagues made the wrong choice. One of them denies the possibility of faith, the other - the possibility of doubt.
