Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
When things are too clear, they are no longer interesting.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Only the first swath cut by the scythe is difficult.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
But what can you say in a letter?
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
As the fathers live, so the children play.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
