In general, I write a lot about myself, but I print out of captivity and solely for money; I want to appear in front of an audience that doesn’t understand you, to have four fools scold you for six months in their magazines, and I just can’t swear.

No literature is so full of resentment as young Russian literature. The books of Dostoevsky, Gogol, Tolstoy are simply teeming with heroes charged with resentment. This state of affairs is a consequence of centuries of oppression of the people by the autocracy and the impossibility, due to the absence of a parliament and freedom of the press, to give vent to the feelings that arise under the pressure of authority.
