It is a bad thing if a writer tackles a subject he does not understand.
Anton Chekhov
I confess I seldom commune with my conscience when I write.
Anton Chekhov
Sports are positively essential. It is healthy to engage in sports, they are beautiful and liberal, liberal in the sense that nothing serves quite as well to integrate social classes, etc., than street or public games.
Anton Chekhov
Medicine is my lawful wife and literature my mistress when I get tired of one, I spend the night with the other.
Anton Chekhov
It's been a long time since I've had champagne.
Anton Chekhov
It's immoral to steal, but you can take things.
