“... from my youth - I left Russia at the age of 19 - my political credo remains as colorless and unchanged as the old gray rock. It is traditionally to banality. Freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of art. The public or economic system of the ideal state cares little to me. My desires are modest. Portraits of the head of state should not exceed the size of the postage stamp. No torture and executions. No music except the one that sounds in headphones or in theaters. ”
