Books are not made to be believed, but to be subjected to inquiry.
When we consider a book, we mustn't ask ourselves what it says but what it means...
Russian: … замечательные люди исчезают у нас, не оставляя по себе следов. Мы ленивы и нелюбопытны… |

English: ... notable people disappear among us without a trace left of them. We are indolent and incurious... |
Entia non sunt multiplicanda sine necessitate.
