{24:6} And you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not
troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the
end is not yet. {24:7} For nation shall rise against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines,
and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. {24:8}
All these [are] the beginning of sorrows. {24:9} Then shall
they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye
shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. {24:10}
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one
another, and shall hate one another. {24:11} And many
false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. {24:12}
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall
wax cold. {24:13} But he that shall endure unto the end, the
same shall be saved. (Gospel of St. Matthew)

They do not turn away from people, but people turn away from them: people look but do not see, listen but do not hear, or, in the words of Heraclitus, " absent being present”.  I. Ilyin “The Lonely Artist”.   - I was four years old when my older brother was given colored pencils. I took these pencils and said: "I won't give them back ." And a person dear to me, my mother's sister, said: "Don't touch him, he will be an artist." (V. M.) ValentinMassow was born in 1937, on the centenary of the death of A.S. Pushkin , in the family of a provincial doctor an...
