"I replied that I had not read Rob Roy, but that it was very interesting to me to listen to it, because I preferred to read books from the middle instead of from the beginning.
It is twice as interesting; it starts you guessing what has happened, and what will happen." - Leo Tolstoy's Childhood Boyhood and Youth.

July 10, 2009 - Leo Tolstoy
"In my opinion, it is in the smile of a face that the essence of what we call beauty lies. If the smile heightens the charm of the face, then the face is a beautiful one. If the smile does not alter the face, then the face is an ordinary one. But if the smile spoils the face, then the face is an ugly one indeed." - Leo Tolstoy from Childhood, Boyhood and Youth.
