Quotes by Vasily Aksyonov (?)

“Outside a sparrow was swaying back and forth on the branch of a birch tree. A tiny drop fell away from beneath his tail. Ruffling its feather triumphantly, it soared off toward a destination unknown.”
― Vasily Aksyonov

“Словом, по моему мнению, если бы в данный момент провести соответствующий референдум, то не менее 70 процентов населения высказалось бы за вхождение в СССР, однако 30 процентов – это тоже немало, и любое неосторожное включение в сеть может вызвать короткое замыкание и пожар. Через три месяца на Острове предстоят выборы.”
― Vasily Aksyonov
