Some quotes from the book:

1. He forgot about the problems, mental torment and vanity - three things that corrode the essence of man from within.

2. Nights, as a rule, are short, but even they sometimes last insanely long for those who try, but for some reason cannot fall asleep. Those very unpleasant minutes and hours when you are in a state of anxiety, depression or expectation of something. At such moments, the bed becomes wildly uncomfortable, the pillow is stone, and the night hateful.

3. Nothing instills in a person a panic more than the panic of other people.
