Mă străduiesc adesea să mi-l imaginez, pentru că nu-l ţin minte precis cum arăta. Zadarnic. îmi apare în faţa ochilor doar o umbră cu mici amănunte, disparate, cunoscute, apropiate, dar o imagine completă nu se încheagă niciodată. ↗

Because it was enough for one of those favorites of His Distinguished Highness to issue a thoughtless decree. These young smart alecks see it, and they immediately imagine some fatal result and come running to the rescue. They start trying to mend things, straighten things out, patch things up and untangle them. And so instead of using their energy to build their own vision of the future, instead of trying to put their irresponsible, destructive fantasies into action, our malcontents had to roll up their sleeves and start untangling what the minsters had knotted up. And there's always a lot of work to untangling! So they untangle and untangle, drenched in sweat, wearing their nerves to shreds, running around, patching things up here and there, and in all this rush and overwork, in this whirlwind, their fantasies slowly evaporate from their hot heads. ↗
