When you've nothing to live for, you get to thinking inside your head.
— Andrei Platonov
The working class is my home country, and my future is linked with the proletariat.
If kids can forget their own mothers but still have a sense of comrade Lenin, then Soviet power really is here to stay!
From our ugliness will grow the soul of the world.
Without truth I feel ashamed to be alive.
If they don't think, people act senselessly.
At the time of the Revolution, dogs howled day and night all over Russia.
A man who's never seen war is like a woman who's never given birth - soft in the head.
We can't feel anything - all that's left inside us is dust.
Does the world have nothing inside but sorrow?
We hate our squalor.
I lived and languished.
I want my word to be up to the scale of the feat of arms performed by the Russian soldier.
What if we all suddenly get carried away thinking - who will be left to act?
Happiness will come from materialism, not from meaning.
I have a trend of my own.
My body gets weak without truth.
