### Description

Added quotes from Russian classics.

### Translations

1058: A drowning man, they say, grabs a small splinter, and he has no
reason to think that a fly can ride on a splinter, and his weight is
almost four poods, if not even five whole poods; but it does not come to
his mind at that time, and he grabs the splinter.

1059: The current generation now sees everything clearly, marvelling at
the misconceptions, laughing at the unreasonableness of their ancestors,
not for nothing, that this chronicle is scrawled with heavenly fire,
that every letter screams in it, that a piercing finger is everywhere
directed at them, at them, at the current generation; but the current
generation laughs and presumptuously, proudly begins a series of new
misconceptions, which will also be laughed at later by their
descendants.

1060: Everything quickly turns in a man; before you know it, a terrible
worm has grown inside, self-possessedly turning to itself all the vital
juices. And many times not only a broad passion, but a petty passion for
something petty grew in him who was born for the best feats, made him
forget his great and holy duties and see the great and holy in
insignificant trinkets.

1061: All life is thought and labour, labour though obscure, dark, but
continuous, and to die with the consciousness that one has done one's
work.

1062: As soon as he woke up, he immediately resolved to get up, wash his
face, and, having drunk tea, to think hard, to think of something, to
write it down, and generally to do it properly. For half an hour he lay
there, tormented by this intention, but then he reasoned that he would
have time to do it after tea, and tea could be drunk in bed, as usual,
especially as there was nothing to prevent him from thinking while lying
down.

1063: The fact was that Tarantiev was a master only of speaking; he
decided everything clearly and easily in words, especially what
concerned others; but as soon as it was necessary to move a finger, to
move from a place - in a word, to apply his own theory to a case and to
give it a practical course, to give it disposition and speed - he was
quite a different man: Suddenly he was not enough - he was suddenly
heavy, or unwell, or awkward, or another matter would come up, which he
would not take up, and even if he did, God forbid what would happen.

1064: He was not frightened, for instance, by the cracked ceiling in his
bedroom: he was accustomed to it; nor did it occur to him that the
perpetually stale air in the room and the constant sitting locked up
were almost more ruinous to health than the dampness of the night; that
to overfill the stomach daily was a kind of gradual self-destruction;
but he was accustomed to it and was not frightened.

1065: He unfurled his umbrella while it rained, that is, he suffered
while the grief lasted, and he suffered without timid submission, but
more with vexation, with pride, and he bore it patiently only because he
attributed the cause of every suffering to himself, and did not hang it,
like a caftan, on someone else's nail. And he enjoyed joy like a flower
plucked on the road, until it wilted in his hands, without ever
finishing the cup to that drop of bitterness which lies at the end of
every pleasure.

1066: When all the forces in your organism play, then life will play
around you, and you will see what your eyes are closed to now, you will
hear what you cannot hear: the music of the nerves will play, you will
hear the noise of the spheres, you will listen to the growth of grass.
Wait, do not hurry, it will come!

1067: It often happens to fall asleep in summer on a quiet, cloudless
evening, with twinkling stars, and think how good the field will be
tomorrow in the morning's bright colours! How cheerful it is to go deep
into the thicket of the woods and hide from the heat! And suddenly one
wakes up to the pounding of rain, to grey sad clouds; cold, damp....

1068: He had never clearly grasped the weight of a word of goodness,
truth, purity, thrown into the stream of people's speech, the deep
windings it breaks through; he had never thought that if spoken
cheerfully and loudly, without the colour of false shame, but with
courage, it would not sink into the ugly cries of the secular satyrs,
but would sink like a pearl into the abyss of social life, and there
would always be a shell for it.

1069: Many hesitate at a good word, weeping with shame, and boldly,
loudly utter a frivolous word, not realising that it too, unfortunately,
does not go to waste, leaving a long trail of evil, sometimes
ineradicable.

1070: Life flashes by like an instant, and he would lie down and sleep!
Let it be a constant burning! Oh, if I could live two hundred, three
hundred years! How many things could be done!

1071: Human beings are created to organise themselves and even to change
their nature, but they grow a paunch and think that nature has sent them
this burden! You had wings, but you cut them off.

1072: I know that love is less exacting than friendship, it is even
often blind, love is not for merit - that's true. But love requires
something, sometimes trifles, which can neither be defined nor named,
and which is absent in my incomparable but clumsy Ilya.

1073: Reach out to a fallen man to lift him up, or weep bitterly over
him if he perishes, rather than mock him. Love him, remember yourself in
him, and treat him as yourself - then I will read you and bow my head to
you...

1074: A short, daily rapprochement between man and man does not cost
either of them for nothing: a lot is needed on both sides of life
experience, logic and warmth of heart, that, enjoying only the
advantages, not to stab and not stab mutual shortcomings.

1075: Friendship is a good thing when it is a love between a young man
and woman or a remembrance of love between old men. But God forbid if it
is friendship on one side and love on the other.

1076: When you don't know what you live for, so you live somehow, day by
day; you rejoice that the day has passed, that the night has come, and
in your sleep you plunge the dull question of why you lived this day,
why you will live tomorrow.

1077: Some people have nothing better to do than talk. It's a calling.

1078: And the night was the darkest you can imagine. In summer, you
know, we have such dark nights near Kursk, but warm and mild: the stars
are hung like lamps across the sky, and the darkness underneath is so
thick that it is as if someone were fumbling and touching you in it...

1079: These astronomers are the worst, and especially in the drawbar
they are the most dangerous; a postilion always has to watch a horse
with such a habit, because the astronomer himself does not see how he
pokes his feet, and God knows where he ends up.

1080: Who knows what I'll find when I return? And how much I may lose!

1081: When you have travelled and returned home, and the smoke of the
Fatherland is sweet and pleasant to us!

1082: Have you ever, laughing or in sorrow, by mistake, said a kind word
about someone? Though not now, but perhaps when you were a child.

1083: What a trick you pulled! I haven't written two words for three
years! And then suddenly it came out of nowhere.

1084: How marvellous is the light created! If you philosophise, your
mind will be dizzy; If you take care, then dinner: Eat for three hours,
but in three days it will not be digested!

1085: There are on earth such transformations of governments, climates,
and manners, and minds; there are people important, heard for fools:
another in the army, another a bad poet, another ... I am afraid to
name, but recognised by the whole world, especially in recent years,
that they have become clever as anything.

1086: When in business I hide from mirth, when to fool, I fool; and to
mix these two trades there are a darkness of artisans, I am not of their
number.

1087: I was blind! In whom I sought the reward of all my labours! In a
hurry! Flying! I was trembling! I thought happiness was at hand. Before
whom I was so passionate and so low a waster of tender words! And you!
Oh, my God! Whom have you chosen? When I think who you have chosen! Why
did you entice me with hope? Why did you not tell me that you have
turned the past into laughter?! That the memory of those feelings, of
those movements of the heart in both of us, which neither distance, nor
amusement, nor change of place has cooled in me. I breathed them, and
lived them, and was occupied with them without ceasing! If you had been
told that my sudden arrival, my appearance, my words, my actions -
everything disgusts you - I would have cut off all communication with
you at once, and before parting for ever I would not have tried to find
out who this amiable man is?

1088: So! I have sobered up completely, dreams are out of sight - and
the veil has fallen;

1089: Who are the judges? - Beyond the antiquity of years. Their enmity
to free life is irreconcilable; their judgements are drawn from
forgotten newspapers of the times of Ochakovsk and the conquest of the
Crimea; always ready for a fight, they all sing the same song, not
noticing about themselves: what is older, is worse. Where are the
fathers of the fatherland, whom we should take as models? Are not these,
rich in robbery? They have found protection from judgement in friends,
in kinship, in splendid chambers, where feasts and debauchery spill
over, and where foreign clients will not resurrect the meanest features
of their past lives.
