Fazil Iskander

A person gets tired of fighting and pretends that he has become wiser.

Suicide is the result of a sense of personal failure.

Nature offers us her wisdom, and does not impose it on us.

Daniil Granin

There is an ancient saying: a doctor cannot be a good doctor if he is only a good doctor. The same with scientists. If a scientist is only a scientist, then he cannot be a great scientist. When fantasy and inspiration disappear, creativity also degenerates. It needs distractions.

Most people don't try to go beyond their limits; in their lives they never try to find out what they are capable of and what they are incapable of. They don’t know that they can’t do it ... It’s a shame to live life without recognizing yourself - the person who seemed to be closest to you and whom you loved so much ...

Genius is just something that does not fit into any rules.

Andrey Bitov

Duty, honor, dignity, like virginity, are used only once in a lifetime, when they are lost.

We used to think that fate is twisted and we never get what we want. In fact, we all get our own - and this is the worst thing ...

Ah, the strongest feelings awaken in us when we are told in person what we ourselves know very well.

Valentin Rasputin

Baba will outwit herself, not like others.

Everything that happens is for the better, for making life more interesting and happier. Well, live: do not look back, do not think.

When everything is good, it's easy to be together: it's like a dream, just breathe, and that's all. We need to be together when it's bad - that's what people come together for.

Victoria Tokareva

It seems to me that God invented man for happiness, and already people spoil everything themselves.

A man in his work focuses on God. And a woman to a man. A woman ascends to God through a man, through love.

The greatest value is life. And the greatest value of life is youth.

Boris Strugatsky

Smart, if really smart, does not know that he is smart.

Cultured people have much more reason to get drunk than uncultured people. A person drinks because his desires do not correspond to his capabilities. He will never get used to the idea that life must be difficult. And I want it to be simple and easy.

Smart people know history, but fools and scoundrels do it.

Boris Vasiliev

The worst thing is suspicion. It cripples people, turning them into scoundrels and selfish people.

I probably don’t express my thoughts well, and you probably would have expressed them better, but I know one thing: you can’t betray your fathers. It is impossible, otherwise we will kill ourselves, our children, our future. We will tear the world in two, we will dig an abyss between the past and the present, we will break the connection between generations, because there is no more terrible betrayal in the world than the betrayal of one's father.

The time has come for a personal life, and the girls met this new life for them with anxiety, realizing that it is personal and no one will help them here. No school, no Komsomol, not even mothers. This life had to be met one on one: women who awakened in them in such a similar way and in their own way, longed for independence, like all women at all times.

Yuz Aleshkovsky

Remember...: angels hear thoughts, and demons hear words. Therefore, it is enough to think about the good, it is not necessary to trend.

And what else can smell in the country?! After all, the main body has not yet been buried!

In what shit does a man live, what vile beasts bite him, and he is all to the stars, to the stars, a daring and magnificent bastard!

Vladimir Voinovich

Your vaunted democracy does not lie to us Russians. This situation, in which every fool can speak his mind and tell the authorities what they should and should not do, does not suit us. We need one ruler who enjoys absolute authority and knows exactly where to go and why.

There is nothing good in democracy. If there is a fire, then all the democrats and pluralists are looking for the one who will lead them out. These vaunted democracies have long been decaying, perishing, mired in luxurious life and pornography.

Fiction, like a detective, is not literature at all, but nonsense, like electronic games that contribute to the development of mass idiocy.

Vladimir Sorokin

So many useless things in the world. They are made, transported on carts to cities and villages, they persuade people to buy, cashing in on bad taste. And people buy, rejoice, not noticing the worthlessness, stupidity of this thing.

“What a miracle - life! he thought, peering into the blizzard as if seeing it for the first time. - The Creator gave us all this, gave it completely disinterestedly, gave it so that we could live. And he does not demand anything from us for this sky, for these snowflakes, for this field! We can live here, in this world, just live, we enter it as if it were a new house built for us, and it hospitably opens its doors to us, opens this sky and these fields! This is the miracle! This is the proof of the existence of God!”

I often see in European cities: a couple is walking - a very nice guy, a little feminine, and such, we will say, a little attractive, but a strong, masculine wife. The woman and the man changed places.

Ludmila Ulitskaya

All equally - an idea, maybe a good one, but unrealizable. Even if it were possible to distribute the entire public property equally, the next day one would drink, another would lose, the third would give at interest, and a new inequality would arise in the shortest possible time.

This is what consumer society stands for - to force someone to buy something completely unnecessary, to arouse a new desire in a person and immediately satisfy it ...

It is written that God created man in His own image and likeness. But the opposite is no less true: man creates God in his own image and likeness.

Alexander Kabakov

"... he is afraid of freedom, which will certainly show who is really worth what, and it is very scary to find out in freedom that you are not worth anything, but here at least there is consolation for life - the communists are to blame, so you need to think a hundred more times before rushing to freedom, and here he, for example, is not ready for such a test. Here he is an unrecognized genius, and there he may turn out to be a recognized mediocrity ... "

“Contrary to all the canons of political correctness, I do not want and cannot forgive the past. Geniuses worked for Stalin and Hitler, so are geniuses to be blamed for the cannibalism of those who ordered people's cars and hydrogen bombs, "V-2" and the film "Ivan the Terrible"? Today, blaming is already considered old-fashioned ... But I remember everything with it. ”

“And the time is right. The best thing that was done by Hitler's servant Porsche - "Beetle" - does not bear his name. There is a car, but the person who stained himself, as if there was not.”

Sergei Gandlevsky

““Youth inattentively rushes in some kind of algebra of ideas, feelings and aspirations, the private takes little, beats little ...” - said Herzen.
Dostoevsky's psychologism resonates with a young passion for self-examination and a passion for his own complexity and inconsistency. He is shaking - but you are shaking up to twenty-five years! And after, when the “algebra of ideas” is taken into account, the time comes for “arithmetic”, “private”, observations and details - nature, social habits of a person, love, family intricacies, aging; it's time to treat other manifestations of one's own and others' complexity as licentiousness; a time of feelings, not passions... And one fine day, your hand, as if by itself, bypassing Dostoevsky, removes Tolstoy from the shelf.

It would be good for a poet, like everyone else, to follow all the precepts of generally accepted morality, but I would add to them one more, purely professional: do not deceive yourself. The invention of far-fetched motives for the behavior of a lyrical hero, casting a shadow on the wattle fence will immediately be felt by a sensitive reader and will leave a residue of falsehood.

Probably, there are such eras in the history of any country when the culture has matured enough, and it is desperately needed that someone, as they say, bring it to mind. But the best explanation was given, in my opinion, by Tyutchev, when he compared Pushkin with his first love: she is always one and always unique. After Pushkin, a lot of excellent works were written and many excellent works will be written in the future, but it was he who was born in a shirt: everything came together one to one - both his innate genius, and the triumphant well-being of Russia after the war of 1812, and the high spirits of the first two decades of the 19th century whether it be love, friendship, ambition, and so on. It was a festive era, and Pushkin became its best personification. There was nothing like it - no time like that, no similar figure - there was no more. And don't, I think. Let's be grateful for what we have. Why be like the ungrateful old woman from The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish?

Lev Rubinstein

We must live with a clear and unshakable understanding of what is the norm and what is pathology, we must live with the starry sky above our heads and with the moral law within us.

Hatred - irrational and dark - is more primary than its object. It is not generated by the object of irritation. She only provokes them.

Everything is correct. But no more correct than the circumstance that if it had not happened that a person was born, then he would not have died. To consider any beginning as the cause of any end is eternal, like the world. Logic trap. In the cause-and-effect system of some tribes in the Amazon basin, for example, it is believed that the wind blows because the trees sway. By the way, I am not saying that this is not the case. It’s just that for some it’s like this, and for others it’s different.

Vladimir Makanin

"- Friends betray, Major ... The best! It is friends who betray ... Why? But because everyone else betrays us. Friends betray ... Comrades surrender ... Colleagues surrender ... And if you stumbled on them, on everyone else - this is nothing, this is the norm "This is life. If friends, comrades and all the others are doing a dirty trick, it's just people like people. It doesn't mean much ... It doesn't mean anything ..."

Ruin and frequent change of leadership are two factors that polish us, the market, to a shine. But not everyone.

Having become talented in her indignation, she quickly lost friends.

Eduard Kochergin

And look at our actors - they always have to make different images of themselves. I can see from the cloakroom how they come out of their clothes, paste over their faces with mustaches and beards, enter into someone else's state, but they don't go back from there to the end, they get confused between themselves and different people all their lives. They are miserable people...

In what other language, what kind of people call grief so affectionately diminutively - goryushka?

Man, that sounds sick.

Mikhail Shishkin

In the morning, when you don’t want to get up and live, smile. And smile again. And further.

There is a threshold of pain. A person loses consciousness so as not to die. And there is a threshold of grief - suddenly it stops hurting. You don't feel anything. Nothing at all.

And the world is not a dream, and I am not an illusion. I - exists, and you need to make him happy.

"There was a spiritual reward there - hope and faith

I did not know how that part of the soul where love is stored can hurt. I felt this organ as a living piece of passionate dough, and someone's evil will rolled it into a pancake with a spiked roller.

A hefty Georgian came from the next ward to the song. The old-timers called him Vanya. Later I learned that his last name was Kikovani.

The Georgian was complacent:

And you can .. There is such a thing ... - he snapped his fingers. - Under the sy-y-nym ne-e-bom there is a city of ode-y-n, it is with a bright star-oh ... An animal, like an eagle, there is a gulaet, huh?

- "Golden City"? Certainly can.

Alexander Ilichevsky

Korolev understood little about himself, what was happening to him, and day after day he rode in trolleybuses bogged down in traffic jams, mechanically changing to the final one in the opposite direction. At the kiosk he bought himself a book and read it all the time. More precisely, he held it in front of him on a backpack, looking out the window. The book protected him. He always knew that a reading person inspires cops and other passengers, if not respect, then regret and apprehension, resembling a holy fool.

Psychology is not a science, smiled Max. Psychology is a form of individual entrepreneurship.

People should be sorry. People are weak. People are fragile... With one move you can cross out someone's life. Be careful, be careful. Have pity on people... A man in weakness is poor and tormented by himself...

Olga Slavnikova

You just want stability. But stability in this country is the most expensive thing, much more expensive than a villa and a private plane. If it's possible at all.

“It must be that some specially trained demon averts the eyes of deceived husbands. Here are women - they immediately sense something was wrong, their pointed horns instantly become antennas, and the more branches you instruct, the more perfect this new organ becomes, bearing the husband in all the space available to him. The deceived husband, on the contrary, stupidly wears his bone jewelry, which obviously takes something away from the brain.

"Freedom, freedom! There is no freedom without free thinking, without the ability to think with your own head! Nowhere! And in general, freedom is an uncomfortable thing, it would be time to learn this for the dear Ordinary Individual!

Aleksey Ivanov

Writing is a sinful occupation. If you trust a leaf, you will not inform Christ. Therefore, no matter how great literature was, it always only taught, but never educated. Unlike life.

Half an hour left before the New Year. The past year has been different - good and bad, hard and easy. Let's be silent for the rest of the time and remember what we won't remember later in order to enter the future without extra baggage.

Your sense of humor is not developed, so your jokes are idiotic. A sense of humor requires a culture that you don't have.

Dina Rubina

And not far from here lived the composer Kozlovsky, the one who picked up the wounded stork in his garden and cured him. He could no longer fly, but for many days he walked around the yard and garden for many years ... And when the composer died, the stork, like a mourning sentry, stood for three days at the head of the coffin, on one leg ...

Once, in my youth, I saw a twelve-legged coffin hurrying across the road. Like a centipede.

Excuse me, does anyone know what street love, trust, mutual understanding live on.? Long time no see just...

Do you even know where she got such a strange thing from? From the movie. Have you looked at space? There was a dragon, with acid instead of blood. He laid eggs in people. Here she is - a rare suit of a creature!

Not soap - but midlo, the plane - flew, the car - drove .. And how is Jam?

We pulled this scum out of the shit, and she, the rat, thanked! Bro, you don't know her. This rat has loaded you. She's finished, you get under the ice with her. This is a seal, it must be kept in a cage, away from people.

Evgeny Grishkovets

Then I told him that it is not clear at what point youth ends, perhaps it ends when you begin to feel someone is a youth and despise what these youths like.

And how important it is to feel life not alone, but with someone together. Because together is always stronger than alone.

The first glass makes you happy, the third drives away the remnants of happiness.

“Your fear, Lyuda, has a very simple source: atheism in childhood. All of us at one time were covered by this horror: such is modern civilization. After all, for the first time a person turned out to be alone with death, without faith.

“And she saw how complicated everything is, and how simple and not just at the same time, and how everything is interconnected and what a high, although not visible to the world qualification, one must have in order to cut the mortal knot…”.

A person is not a “frame”, but a whole movie, and even the whole cinema to boot.

Why should we trust only those poisonous words that sorrow whispers to us? Why not believe in the childish babble of happiness that sometimes breaks into our soul inadvertently, like a multi-colored ball?

My father, a child psychiatrist, died at the hands of one of his patients, a crazy girl. I was then 4 years old. My mother is a KGB officer, she is now over seventy, but, oddly enough, she still works in the authorities - what this old woman does there, I don’t know. I grew up with my grandparents among books, was fond of poetry, mathematics, social sciences. No one, except myself, was involved in my upbringing. On the free road I went where my free mind took me. It drew me along the alleys of cheerful dirty parks, museum corridors, dry clay paths of the southern slopes, black rooms of my friends.

Dmitry Bykov

The degree of freedom of a society is determined not by the amount of permitted information, but by the level of development of this society, its complexity. A fool cannot be free; it is not for nothing that he is called a "limited person." He is limited in everything, including in making personal decisions.

“I don't feel sorry for anyone. I am against war. For world peace. Let them all be killed, so long as there is no more war.”

“War is a horror that happens not even to those who are at war, but to those who just happen to be around. They are the worst. So it was at all times. Therefore, wars are cursed for centuries.

104. You do not ask them for a reward for this, because this is only a Reminder for the worlds.

How many signs in heaven and on earth that they pass by and turn away.

Most of them believe in Allah, joining partners to Him.

107. Do they not fear that the veil of Allah's punishment will envelop them, or that the Hour will come suddenly, when they will not even think about it?

108. Say: “This is my way. I and my followers call to Allah according to belief. Glory be to Allah, and I am not one of the polytheists.

109. Before you, We sent as messengers only men from the villages, whom We inspired revelation. Have they not traveled the earth and seen what was the end of those who lived before them? Verily, the abode in the Hereafter is better for the God-fearing. Don't they understand?

110. When the Messengers were in despair and thought that they had been rejected, Our help came to them, and those whom We wanted to save were saved. Our punishment cannot be averted from sinful people!

111. The story about them contains an edification for those who have understanding. This is not a fictitious story, but a confirmation of what was before it, the clarification of every thing, the right guidance and mercy for the believers.

Sura 13. Thunder

1. Alif. Lam. Mime. Ra. These are verses of Scripture. What has been sent down to you from your Lord is the truth, but most people do not believe.

2. Allah lifted up the heavens without supports for you to see, and then ascended to the Throne (or established himself on the Throne). He has subdued the sun and the moon, and they are moving towards their appointed time. He manages affairs and explains the signs so that you may be convinced to meet your Lord.

3. He is the One who spread the earth, established immutable mountains and rivers on it, grew on it from different fruits in pairs. It covers the day at night. Verily, in this are signs for a people who think.

4. On the earth there are adjacent plots, vineyards, crops, palm trees growing from one root or from different roots. They are irrigated with the same water, but We make some of them more palatable than others. Verily, in this are signs for a people who understand.

5. If you wonder, then wonder at their words: “After we become dust, will we be reborn in a new creation?” They are those who did not believe in their Lord. They are those who have chains around their necks. They are the inhabitants of the Fire, who will abide in it forever.

They rush you with evil before good, but before them there were already examples of instructive punishment. Verily, your Lord forgives people despite their injustice. Verily, your Lord is severe in punishment.

7. The unbelievers say: “Why was not a sign sent down to him from his Lord?” Truly, you are but a warning warner, and every nation has a teacher.

Allah knows what each female wears, how much each uterus shrinks or expands. Every thing with Him has a measure.

9. He is the Knower of the hidden and the obvious, the Great, the Exalted.

10. Whether you hide your words or say them aloud, whether you hide at night or move openly during the day, you are all equal before Allah.

He (a man) has angels who go ahead of him and behind him and guard him by the command of Allah. Indeed, Allah does not change the condition of people until they change themselves. If Allah wishes evil to people, then nothing will prevent it. They have no master but Him.

12. He is the One who shows you the lightning so that you fear and hope, and creates heavy clouds.

Thunder glorifies Him with praise, as well as the angels from fear of Him. He throws lightning bolts and strikes whomever He wills with them. They argue about Allah, and yet He is strong and severe in punishment.

The call of truth is addressed to Him. And those whom they call instead of Him do not answer them. They are like one who stretches out his hands to the water to bring it to his mouth, but cannot do it. Verily, the prayer of the disbelievers is but a delusion.


Does the person know his abilities? And do they have a limit? Daniil Granin suggests thinking about this problem.

The writer, reflecting on these questions, draws attention to the fact that people often do not know what they are capable of and are not capable of, as they are afraid to make a discovery of themselves. But in everyday life, in extreme conditions, there are situations when a person exceeds ordinary abilities, which means that all activities can exceed standard capabilities.

Position D.A. The boundary lies in the fact that there are no limits and boundaries for human capabilities.

I agree with the author, because I believe that in various situations, having a great desire and high motivation, we are able to overcome many unbearable obstacles and obstacles, and after what has been done it is impossible to realize how this was done.

The experience of real fiction can serve as confirmation of my position. For example, the work of B.L. Vasilyev “The Dawns Here Are Quiet…”. After all, it is in it that the hidden possibilities of man are depicted. So young girls, having become soldiers who did not know how to fight, hold weapons in their hands, be strong and courageous, learned this while defending their homeland.

After all, they had one goal - to defeat the enemy. They opened up more and more new breath, but continued to fight and overcome obstacles as best they could.

Also outstanding abilities: fortitude, endurance are described in Mikhail Sholokhov's story "The Fate of a Man". Andrei Sokolov during the Great Patriotic War lost the most valuable thing to his heart and soul - his family. But he was able to overcome this painful test of fate, continued to live, adopting an orphan. Sokolov got to know himself, discovered new opportunities and resources of his character, realized that they are limitless and strong.

So, the text of Daniil Granin convinces us that a person cannot know exactly his capabilities, but they are very great and endless.

Option 2

Can a person exceed his capabilities in wartime? It is this problem that D.A. Granin raises in his text.

The writer reveals the problem on the example of the incredible resilience of people during the siege of Leningrad.

Hungry and tormented souls did not give up, continued to struggle with death and, thus, amazed with their courage. Even medicine could not explain this incredible heroism. The author notes that it was precisely such spiritual forces as a deep sense of patriotism and faith in victory that gave people incredible strength for further struggle.

Thus, using the examples of fiction, one can be convinced of the incredible heroism of people in wartime. Indeed, the war showed that for the sake of their Fatherland, people can do the impossible and do much more than it seems.

Option 3

Why do people create a kind of barrier around themselves that prevents them from developing, discovering new talents and opportunities? If you think about it, there are so many wonderful things in the world that, unfortunately, people refuse. In this text, D. Granin raised the problem of illiterate use of one's capabilities.

Reflecting on the problem posed, the author attracts the attention of readers with his philosophical thoughts. "Most people don't try to go beyond their limits." The author is disturbed by the fact that many people close the doors in front of them and do nothing to achieve anything. “It’s a shame to live life without recognizing yourself…”. Indeed, there is always something that prevents you from believing in yourself.

On the pages of fiction, this problem is raised repeatedly. So, for example, in the novel by I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov". Oblomov is just such a character who does not have the meaning of life. Every day he lies and grumbles at Zakhar. In a word, he does not use his opportunities. For example, he has an estate left from his father, thanks to which he could become richer and travel, try new things, study, and he was even too lazy to go there to control everything.

But in I.S. Turgenev’s novel “Fathers and Sons”, Bazarov, in my opinion, failed to reveal all his talents. Before meeting Odintsova, Bazarov was dry and very rude. He denied everything except science, constantly argued with Kirsanov, did not know how to admire nature. Only Odintsova was able to awaken feelings in him. I think that Bazarov could make many discoveries and even write a book if the love was mutual.

I think that people are self-critical not only because of their own motives, but also because of the influence of society. Therefore, it is very important to surround yourself with the right people who will never cause your low self-esteem.

Does the person know his abilities? And do they have a limit? Daniil Granin suggests thinking about this problem.

The writer, reflecting on these issues, draws attention to the fact that people often do not know what they are capable of and are not capable of, because they are afraid to make a discovery of themselves. But in everyday life, in extreme conditions, there are situations when a person exceeds ordinary abilities, which means that all activities can exceed standard capabilities.

The position of D. A. Granin is that for human capabilities

there are no limits and boundaries.

I agree with the author, because I believe that in various situations, having a great desire and high motivation, we are able to overcome many overwhelming obstacles and obstacles, and after what has been done, it cannot even come to mind how this was done.

The experience of real fiction can serve as confirmation of my position. For example, the work of B. L. Vasiliev “The dawns here are quiet ...”. After all, it is in it that the hidden possibilities of man are depicted. So young girls, becoming soldiers who did not know how to fight, hold weapons in their hands, be strong and courageous,

learned this by defending the Motherland. After all, they had one goal - to defeat the enemy. They opened up more and more new breath, but continued to fight and overcome obstacles as best they could.

Also incredible abilities: fortitude, endurance, are described in the story of Mikhail Sholokhov “The Fate of a Man”. Andrei Sokolov during the Great Patriotic War lost the most precious thing to his heart and soul - his family. But he was able to overcome this painful test of fate, continued to live, adopting an orphan. Sokolov got to know himself, discovered new opportunities and resources of his character, realized that they are limitless and strong.

So, the text of Daniil Granin convinces us that a person cannot know exactly his capabilities, but they are very great and endless.

They are afraid (what are they doing?) - without a soft sign

It is better to remake the phrase “they are afraid to make a discovery of themselves” to “they are afraid, as if fearing something, to turn to their soul”

The position of the author can be supplemented. One offer is not enough. For example, write: “The writer firmly believes that human resources are enormous, and encourages the reader not to be afraid to try to surpass their own capabilities, to study themselves.”

Overcome

That was done

“I am ready to confirm my position with literary arguments” - it’s better to write like that.

“Also, incredible abilities - fortitude, endurance - are described in the story of M. Sholokhov ...”

Option 2

Can a person exceed his capabilities in wartime? It is this problem that D. A. Granin raises in his text.

The writer reveals the problem on the example of the incredible resilience of people during the siege of Leningrad. Hungry and tormented souls did not give up, continued to struggle with death and, thus, amazed with their courage. Even medicine could not explain this incredible heroism. The author notes that it was precisely such spiritual forces as a deep sense of patriotism and faith in victory that gave people incredible strength for further struggle.

Thus, on the examples of fiction, one can be convinced of the incredible heroism of people in wartime. Indeed, the war showed that for the sake of their Fatherland, the people can do the impossible and do much more than it seems.

According to D. Granin. How beautiful life would be... The problem of self-knowledge(1) How beautiful life would be if every person could know what he is capable of! (2) Most people don't try to go beyond their limits; in their lives they never try to find out what they are capable of and what they are not capable of. (3) They don't know what they can't do. (4) Among the imperfect mistakes, the avoided risk and even the shame, perhaps really great discoveries lurked. (5) And certainly - the discovery of oneself. (6) It's a shame to live life without recognizing yourself - the person who seems to be closest to you and whom you love so much ...

(7) After all, everyone can do more than he thinks - he is bolder than he considers himself, and more enduring, and stronger, and fitter. (eight) In the hungry winter of the Leningrad blockade, we saw enough of the wonders of human souls. ( 9) It was souls, first of all souls, because in these exhausted, tormented bodies, the energy of the soul, its stamina, struck. (10) Theoretically, even medicine could not imagine an organism capable of enduring so much hardship. (11) For a person, as well as for steel, for concrete - there are limits of permissible loads. (12) And suddenly it turned out that these limits can be surpassed and people can live not by physical forces - they did not exist, they were exhausted, and people continued to live and act with forces not provided for by medicine: love for the Motherland, hatred, anger towards enemies. (13)During the blockade, it was not death that struck - it was legal during the war, it struck vitality: the fact that we clean trenches from snow, carry shells, fight.(14) The heroism of war is an exception. (15) But after all, in everyday life there are such unexpected hours when a person realizes himself with extraordinary fullness: from nowhere - strength will rush in, the mind will sharpen, and the imagination will boil ... (16) Writers call this happy, blissful state inspiration , athletes in form, scientists - insight; it happens to every person - some rarely, others more often ... (17) That's it and importantly: the possibility of such a state when a person surpasses himself, his usual abilities and limits. (18) 3beginning, it is possible, and if it is possible once, then why not twice and not every day - for self-improvement, for the highest dedication, for the full revelation of oneself?

The writing

Who among us has not thought about what abilities we have, what is inherent in us by nature, whether we are capable of overcoming difficulties. In an excerpt from D. Granin's novel "This Strange Life", the main problem, it seems to me, is the problem of knowing one's own personality, "the full revelation of oneself."

No one can doubt the relevance of this problem: you need to know yourself, your abilities in order not to make mistakes, to choose the right path in life.

D. A. Granin believes that "everyone can do more than he thinks - he is bolder than he considers himself, and more resilient, and stronger, and fitter." Proof of this, in his opinion, can serve as an example of the inhabitants of besieged Leningrad, when people exceeded the limits of physical capabilities, because they possessed "the energy of the soul, its stamina." The writer says that the heroism of war is an exception, but even in peacetime a person can realize himself with extraordinary fullness.

D. A. Granin comes to the conclusion that self-knowledge is necessary for self-improvement, for the highest dedication. And with this conclusion, I can not agree!

There are so many examples that a person can, having known himself, surpass his physical capabilities. The same D. A. Granin has a story about the wartime "Claudius Vilor". This is a story about a woman who became a commissar for her former cadet boys. In the first days of the war, she was wounded, along with the cadets, she was taken prisoner. The fascists were a curiosity about a female commissar, they mocked her both physically and morally, trying to break her spirit. But the strength of Vilor's spirit was so great that she managed to remain a Human even in the most unattractive form, even in the most terrible torment. Having escaped from captivity, she went to her behind enemy lines, carrying out patriotic work in the occupied territory. Every day she lived with the highest dedication.

The writer V. Titov has a short autobiographical story "To spite all deaths." Her hero, a miner, saving his friends, received a fatal electric shock, but survived. He lost both hands, but managed to overcome despair and began to write, holding a pen in his teeth. The theme of overcoming a person's own weakness remains an eternal theme, as well as the feat of the hero's wife Tanya - her dedication, patience and love. Both Sergey, the hero of the story, and Tanya are an example of how people, having known their capabilities, live every day with the highest dedication.

Of course, I really don’t want to get into situations that the heroes of the books by D. Granin and V. Titov found themselves in, but you need to know yourself, your potential, in order to live with full dedication, build your happiness, not going with the flow, but along own plans, of their own free will.
