"One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words."

'I should think not!' cried Bazarov. 'A man's capable of understanding anything—how the aether vibrates, and what's going on in the sun—but how any other man can blow his nose differently from him, that he's incapable of understanding.'
Bazarov, in Fathers and Children, by Ivan Turgenev |

"I will not say that I did not know any town could be so ugly as Gibraltar; to say that would be to deny many bitter visits in the past to Colwyn Bay, Manchester, and Stratford-on-Avon; but I will say that I had forgotten much, and that Gibraltar was a shock, and sudden sharp reminder of what I was returning to."

"For the first time in 4 billion years a living creature had contemplated himself and heard with a sudden, unaccountable loneliness, the whisper of wind in the night reeds."
