But there are so few people in the world who are ready to love us for who we really are. Love is not for any achievements and merit. Not for a beautiful body or a fat wallet. Not for useful connections or profitable prospects ... Love is not as a convenient thing, a status accessory or a fictitious image. And simply - to love. To love you, the PRESENT.

The first time is the person who absolutely corresponds to the tasks that the country faces. Smart, intelligent, strong-willed, decisive, who controls the situation, who is not afraid to challenge such a monstrous force, albeit fading, but it is a huge force that is directed against the Russian Federation and the world in general. <... > By the way, in any other country, those who do this would be sued for libel. him need your Taj Mahal? Listen, the man has peace in his pocket! From his any word depends, in general, what will happen to this world!

Alfred believed that I deserved forgiveness.
Is bragging?
- Look at the chronicle, I was there on every page.
That's not true! Your name not even once!
But I'm there! Not named, but there is! And the men of Wessex know it! As you know and this. That's what I said the king. I went with Alfred marsh of Somerset, of Ethandune and all the subsequent battles! We were connected, it was what I could not and did not want to become. He was someone I loved and despised. But for me anyway it was an honor to serve him. He was my king! And he didn't want to go to God not giving me what I deserve, a great many times - my freedom.
