Quotes by Guzel Yakhina (?)

“Страха не было. Похоже, он покинул Баха навсегда.
Впрочем, отсутствие страха вовсе не означало отваги: его заменила не храбрость, а успокоенность. Отрешенный взгляд видел много больше прежнего, словно со всех предметов и людей сдернули завесу - и лишь теперь, впервые, Бах разглядел мир по-настоящему. Буйство красок и богатство оттенков поблекло - осталось только чёрное и белое, только главное, только суть. Этот новый взгляд не только видел - он понимал.”
― Guzel Yakhina, Дети мои

“The patient’s body saves itself on its own. The doctor only helps, directing the body’s strengths to take the proper course, sometimes removing something extra, unnecessary, and obsolete. The doctor and patient travel the road to recovery hand in hand, but the primary part – which is always the deciding factor – is played by the patient, with his will for life and the strengths of his body.”
― Guzel Yakhina, Zuleikha

“no hace mucho de repente llegó a la conclusión de que tuvo suerte de que el destino la hubiera arrojado en ese lugar. Vive a expensas del Estado en la estrechez de un cuartucho de hospital, habita entre personas que no pertenecen a su familia, habla en una lengua que no es la suya, caza como un hombre y trabaja por tres y, sin embargo, se encuentra a gusto. No se puede decir que sea feliz, eso no. Pero está a gusto.”
― Guzel Yakhina, Zuleijá abre los ojos
