Ellen. My wife: I feel I understand her less than a foreign writer who died a hundred years ago. Is it an aberration or is it normal? The books say she did it because... Life says she did it because she did it. Books are where everything is explained to you; life - where nothing is explained to you. I'm not surprised that some people prefer books. Books give meaning to life. The only problem is that the lives they give meaning to are other people's lives, never your own.

/Salman Rushdie/

Reveal the secret of the world to you? This mystery lies in the fact that we see it only from behind, from the reverse side. We see everything from behind, and everything seems scary to us. This tree, for example, is only the wrong side of the tree, the cloud is just the wrong side of the cloud. How can you not understand that everything in the world hides its face from us? If only we could get in front...
/Chesterton/

If I quote others, it is only in order to better express my own thought.

It has not harmed anyone yet, especially if it sounds from the lips of people who have achieved something in this life. In life, there are many sudden, like cancer, mucks for which we are not ready. So when it gets really hard, look here.

1.

The father of Faust, with just one elegant quotation, killed two groups of people at once: those who boast of their higher education; and those who wonder why he is still not rich and famous. After all, what is the use of your applied mathematics if you do not use knowledge for its intended purpose - with its help you will not fry eggs and you will not bargain for a discount. So grabbing academic knowledge while unemployed is at least ridiculous. So much has been said about desires and actions that it is probably better not to enrage once again.

2.

The best exit - always through.

– Robert Frost –

Robert Frost is one of the greatest poets in US history, a four-time Pulitzer Prize winner and a man, according to the Americans themselves, who deserves the Nobel Prize more than Robert Zimmerman. The man brought up entire generations, influenced culture and achieved recognition with his work and creativity during his lifetime, so he can be trusted.

Frost, as it were, tells us that in all cases it is best not to give up on your goal, to acquire an armadillo shell and move forward. But you don’t need to shove like a German tank on the Polish cavalry, no one says that you need to stupidly go ahead. Cunning in such cases is only welcome. Most importantly, do not give back to your plans, because in many cases it is better to exit through another door, and not through the one you entered.

3.

Work saves us from three evils: boredom, vice and need.

– Voltaire –

Apparently, the inquisitive German Catherine II corresponded with the great thinker so that he would once again remind her: “Katyukha, if you work for the good of the Russian State, there will be no time for vice, fornication, intrigues with young counts. If you don’t stop spending the state treasury on yourself and your peasants, then you won’t have to go into debt, and then, after all this fornication, make excuses in confession. And you remember it.

4.

Thanks Nelson, we'll know. You are the same person who showed mankind how to use the kettle and that apartheid is not so bad. In fact, Nelson meant the following: when you see that the situation has reached its critical peak, and it will only get worse, get rid of the source, from what is heating up the situation. For example, from a person in your environment, thanks to which everyone managed to shit, and you personally get into an unpleasant situation. Or from a job that leaves no room for life and hauls out truckloads of dead nerve cells.

5.

Distance between madness and genius measured only by success.

– Bruce Ferstein –

It is not known for certain who said this phrase first, but most heard it for the first time in the eighteenth Bond film, Tomorrow Never Dies. Therefore, we attribute it to screenwriter Bruce Ferstein.

But really: take the same Einstein or Lev Landau, who, if they had not reached astronomical heights and made a huge contribution to science, would have remained in history as mentally unhealthy people. But thanks to world fame, their oddities were treated solely as quirks.

That's how it always is. If you have achieved something, they will call you an eccentric genius and will imitate you in everything, and if not, you will end your days under haloperidol. Because geniuses are allowed everything, even such schizophrenics as Salvador Dali, and a pensioner talking to himself is immediately deported to a madhouse.

6.

Under the Dukes of Borgia in Italy for 30 years war, terror and murder reigned, but Italy gave us Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. And what has Switzerland given us for 500 years of democracy, brotherly love and peace? Cuckoo-clock?

– Orson Welles –

It is perfectly normal not to like or even not know the work of this director, although we strongly recommend watching the film Citizen Kane, which, despite its antiquity, has not lost its relevance and charm. But it is not normal to question his phrase. Indeed, if you look at history, then where life was in full swing, fountains of blood rose up, and the situation changed more often than the seasons, something new appeared. Only countries in which external conflicts were replaced by internal conflicts had the right to world domination - the same USSR, the USA, colonial powers waving cleavers all over the world. Of course, stability is good, but if you want to create something radically new, you will have to go through many unpleasant and uncomfortable things, including tragic ones. A lot of achievements are based on blood, even the car's security system would not be so reliable without numerous accidents.

7.

Under the size, it is not necessary to take into account physical data, but also abilities, starting capital. Why, the same physical ailment is also worth considering. Stephen Hawking created his theories after his illness, and chainedness to the chair did not dampen his enthusiasm at all, rather the opposite. So it doesn’t matter at all how much money you have, where you live, and how strong your intellectual ability, - the main thing is to have a great desire. And a personality can be educated, as Bunin said: “No one started as badly as I did.”

8.

Here's what's funny about life: if you refuse to accept anything but the very best, that is often what you get.

– William Somerset Maugham –

Sometimes in life you need to be selective and too demanding on the things around you. There is nothing arrogant, pretentious and indecent in this, just such perfectionism allows you to filter the slag. If you try to rid yourself of negativity, betrayal and unnecessary worries, avoiding dubious personalities and exactly the same adventures, then most likely you will not encounter them at all. So the author of The Burden of Human Passions was absolutely right: live with the right attitude, be selective, and adversity will bypass you.

9.

I hated every minute of training, but I said to myself:“Don’t quit, suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.

- Muhammad Ali -

There are a lot of whiners around who quit what they started, coming up with a bunch of excuses, ranging from "I'm burned out" to "This is not what I wanted to do." In fact, there is exactly one reason - the sissies thought that one desire and idea was enough to succeed. But no, in life you have to plow, no matter what you do. Sometimes through force - no one said that it would be easy and pleasant. So if something bothers you - do not rush to give it up, be patient, and you will be rewarded for suffering. Remember school cramming - how hard the multiplication table and other arithmetic were given, and how easily you use it now. So it is with any labor initial stage. Don't cry, it's all bullshit, we'll break through.

10.

On the one hand, following the advice of a famous writer is quite dangerous, because you can get stuck in the swamp from which you were warned. But on the other hand, each person is unique, and it is simply impossible to live two identical lives. In addition, most advisers are who are simply trying to add credibility to themselves. In this case, of course, it is better to do the exact opposite. You will say: “So why the hell am I reading your advice if you are the same losers?” Well, do as you please, but don't email us asking for help when you're in trouble.
