Pagan philosophy and Christian doctrine are two branches of the same tree; the truths of Christianity are consistent with the teachings of the best of the pagans; philosophy is, as it were, the threshold of Christianity. There is no knowledge without faith and faith without knowledge.

Where there is no freedom of the press and freedom of conscience, where the government and 9/10 of society look at the journalist as an enemy, where life is so crowded and so bad and there is little hope for better times, such amusements as pouring slop on each other, courts of honor, etc. . etc., put the writers in the funny and pitiful position of animals who, once in a cage, bite off each other’s tails.

And as for the house... The traitors don’t have one. Having betrayed their homeland once, they will never find a place for themselves in life.

- If the future you are talking about really awaits us, then perhaps all that awaits us ahead is despair. However, Zon no one has the right to take away their future from people, even for the sake of saving the world. The future is in the hands of those people who live here and now.

When love is a game, love has no meaning, like any game.

I am not advocating self-neglect or martyrdom. I also don't recommend living like a doormat. It's important to take care of yourself. In the event of an emergency ten kilometers above the ground, putting your oxygen mask on yourself first could be the difference between life and death. Protect yourself first, then help others. But in everyday life this metaphor usually does not work. Also, there doesn't have to be an either/or; it can be both/and. Being too self-focused can be an excuse to shut yourself out from the rest of the world. There's nothing wrong with doing nice things for yourself, but if taken to an extreme, it can become an excuse for self-absorption.

I've heard many times before that traveling - and especially trekking - is a great way to explore yourself. But I couldn’t even imagine how exactly it works. After all, at first the track was just a new experience for me and an opportunity to define my boundaries. But the higher I climb, the more clearly I understand that there are no boundaries. It’s as if you reach a new level and suddenly realize that everything you knew about yourself before remains down there. Along with all the attachments, tasks, grievances... Today, for example, I suddenly wanted to communicate with people with whom I once quarreled and did not contact for several years. Here you seem to be reborn, as if with sweat and blood everything negative comes out of you and only kindness and serenity remain.

“That’s right,” Ellie breaks the silence. - Next to them, you understand: when there is something so majestic, beautiful, eternal above you, any experiences turn into nothing. You look at the embodiment of power and inaccessibility - snow-capped peaks, against their backdrop there are smaller creatures - green mountains, forests, and even less - you yourself - and you feel like you are part of this grandiose system, a great plan. You are as insignificant as a pebble underfoot, and as majestic as Annapurna South. There is no hierarchy here.

If there is no love, not only people will wither, the whole city will wither.
