Your father must have been rather a bad fellow, you know. When you hear the women singing at the dance, it is that God has given you your ears; if you didn’t enjoy the sounds it would mean that the devil has given you your ears, as the Book says, which God wrote in Russian for our people: “ They have ears and they hear not.” However, you hear well, and smell well, and your two other senses are all right. …

Though thou be God or Satan, do thou master my death- pang with thy life-pang, and possess All that I am with all thou art, my Vampire, my Siren that I thought a nightingale ! Abase me ! Spit on me !

The World’s Tragedy

…” He calls truth lies, and sneers at youth and beauty, Pays cash for love and fancies he has won it — Duty means church, where he thanks God he’s done it !

The Vision and the Voice

…d now he shows the tablet again, and he says: As there are 49 letters in the tablet, so are there 49 kinds of cosmos in every thought of God. And there are 49 interpretations of every cosmos, and each interpretation is manifested in 49 ways. Thus also are the calls 49, but to each call there are 49 visions.
