As you pass from the tender years of youth into harsh and embittered manhood, make sure you take with you on your journey all the human emotions! Don't leave them on the road, for you will not pick them up afterwards!

Забирайте же с собою в путь, выходя из мягких юношеских лет в суровое ожесточающее мужество, забирайте с собою все человеческие движения, не оставляйте их на дороге, не подымете потом!

Nikolai Gogol
