Books enlighten the soul, elevate and strengthen a person, awaken in him the best aspirations, sharpen his mind and soften his heart.
William Thackeray, English satirist
A book is a huge force.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, Soviet revolutionary
Without books, we can now neither live, nor fight, nor suffer, nor rejoice and win, nor confidently move towards that reasonable and beautiful future in which we unshakably believe.
Many thousands of years ago, a book in hands best representatives humanity became one of the main weapons in their struggle for truth and justice, and it was this weapon that gave these people terrible strength.
Nikolai Rubakin, Russian bibliologist, bibliographer.
A book is a working tool. But not only. It introduces people to the lives and struggles of other people, makes it possible to understand their experiences, their thoughts, their aspirations; it makes it possible to compare, understand the environment and transform it.
Stanislav Strumilin, academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences
No the best remedy to refresh the mind, like reading the ancient classics; As soon as you take one of them in your hands, even for half an hour, you immediately feel refreshed, lightened and cleansed, lifted and strengthened, as if you had refreshed yourself by bathing in a clean spring.
Arthur Schopenhauer, German philosopher
Anyone who was not familiar with the creations of the ancients lived without knowing beauty.
Georg Hegel, German philosopher
No failures of history and blind spaces of time are able to destroy human thought, enshrined in hundreds, thousands and millions of manuscripts and books.
Konstantin Paustovsky, Russian Soviet writer
The book is a magician. The book transformed the world. It contains the memory of the human race, it is the mouthpiece of human thought. A world without a book is a world of savages.
Nikolai Morozov, creator of modern scientific chronology
Books are a spiritual testament from one generation to another, advice from a dying old man to a young man beginning to live, an order passed on to a sentry going on vacation to a sentry taking his place.
Without books, human life is empty. The book is not only our friend, but also our constant, eternal companion.
Demyan Bedny, Russian Soviet writer, poet, publicist
A book is a powerful tool of communication, labor, and struggle. It equips a person with the experience of life and struggle of humanity, expands his horizon, gives him knowledge with the help of which he can force the forces of nature to serve him.
Nadezhda Krupskaya, Russian revolutionary, Soviet party, public and cultural figure.
Reading good books is a conversation with the most the best people past times, and, moreover, such a conversation when they tell us only their best thoughts.
René Descartes, French philosopher, mathematician, physicist and physiologist
Reading is one of the sources of thinking and mental development.
Vasily Sukhomlinsky, an outstanding Soviet teacher-innovator.
Reading for the mind is the same as physical exercise for body.
Joseph Addison, English poet and satirist
A good book is like a conversation with smart person. The reader receives from her knowledge and a generalization of reality, the ability to understand life.
Alexei Tolstoy, Russian Soviet writer and public figure
Do not forget that the most colossal weapon of multifaceted education is reading.
Alexander Herzen, Russian publicist, writer, philosopher
Without reading there is no real education, there is no and there can be no taste, no words, no multifaceted breadth of understanding; Goethe and Shakespeare are equal to a whole university. By reading a person survives centuries.
Alexander Herzen, Russian publicist, writer, philosopher

Thank you so much!
In the film "Prisoner of the Caucasus" one of the patients in the psychiatric hospital told Shurik that it is a sin to laugh at sick people.
Sergei Khusainov himself said about this book: - I can say that I am at a crossroads. On the one hand, I promised that I would read all five books, but on the other hand, I’m afraid to vomit into the microphone...
Apparently the microphone survived.

Thanks for what you promised! But it’s worth considering that there is always a considerable lobby that demands “to continue, don’t quit, finish what you started...”, anyway, it seems to me, you shouldn’t bend yourself, any of this lobby will support the same thing with both hands. According to rumors, the Ancient Tarmashev was brewing from you? Read it - if you don’t mind, and we’ll thank you... Well, or whatever you see. Anyway - THANK YOU!

although I haven’t read it myself, I admit.
but the start seemed promising
I read (not in the sense of an audio book, but simply read to myself) his “Revenge of the Almighty” - so-so. Very mediocre. There is an opinion about the author that he once suffered from schizophrenia (this is not a curse, it is a diagnosis). He suffers from delusions of his own grandeur and... So, on one of the forums, someone wrote (though about a different book) the following:
Quote:
“...and the words, like pound weights, are true...” - this is not only about Stalin, but also, alas, about Petukhov. He may have become a posthumous icon for young nationalists (since no one who has matured will take his work seriously), but from a purely reader’s point of view, his books are like a nightmare caused by an upset stomach. A stream of consciousness, diluted with pompous and pathetic appeals to the reader, or simply a self-ironic interpretation of folk tales? It is likely that the author is laughing at himself and the ideas that inspire the crowd - then honor and praise be to him! The worst thing is that, for all his shortcomings, he is terribly SERIOUS, even when creativity takes the form of delirium. I remember that in the introduction to the novel in the PF magazine, Yuri Dmitrievich stated that kind and smart books will live under any circumstances. God willing! Only THESE books cannot be called either too kind or too smart... It’s a pity.
So I completely agree with this regarding the “Sword of the Almighty”.

Regarding the effects of the consequences of mental disorders.
Have you read Delaney, for example?
No, I haven't read it. But I read Edgar Allan Poe. He was also a psycho. But talented. But Petukhov, in the work I read, it didn’t turn out that way (I’m talking about talent).-
Quote:
Not everyone is insane - Schnittke, of course...
Exactly. And I’m talking about the same thing... Again, what to compare with... If with the 5th predator, then Petukhov, if not a genius from science fiction, then at least can definitely be called a talent!

"Star Revenge" is a cycle of 5 books. The Sword of the Almighty, if I'm not mistaken, is the last (or first). I read them all on paper. It won't be easy to read the entire series. Somewhere in book 3, the author pays more and more attention to philosophical reasoning. And the further - the more.

That means 5th. "Star's Revenge" is worth reading. At least I was interested. Partly because at school I read parts of the novel in Adventure and Fantasy magazines. And since then I’ve been unread, I’ve been looking for everything. And not finding it, I read all 5 books from the monitor. Since then I have sworn off reading books from the monitor.

Quote:
completely absent from most of what I have read and listened to. over the years
It is impossible to disagree with this. Alas! Multifaceted forecasting of the development of both technology and society has turned into whining about an apocalyptic future. And the titan of intellect and spirit is a muscular primate who only knows how to shoot/fight well and have an excellent understanding of the types of weapon lubricants. Which is generally not bad, but only if it is in addition to other human virtues. Arthur Clarke, Jules Verne, Isaac Asimov and others offered us examples of a man of spirit, moral guidelines, Homo SAPIENS at last! They left behind a bunch of ideas and inventions, many of which have come to fruition or will come to life. What will remain of modern authors, whose heroes live in a world after some (mostly man-made) disaster and enjoy only the fruits of past generations, do not create anything themselves, but only consume?! They are not creators or titans of the spirit. They only know how to survive well. That is, good opportunists are nothing more.-

Agree. This is true. Alas and ah! Fame, in my opinion, has a very indirect relationship to talent. Not everyone famous people possess any talents and not all talents become famous. Rather, fame is a product of one’s own protrusion rather than a well-deserved reward for talent.
