"overheard" conversation

- i dont understand her.
- it's ok. i know her 3 years. she's my closest friend. i still don't understand her.

one thinks it's necessary to understand the person with u - absolutely. "all sides". i think it's impossible to know even urself.

Dostoyevskiy wrote (who else now?) when he was 18:
"Человек есть тайна. Ее надо разгадать, ежели будешь ее разгадывать всю жизнь, то не говри, что потерял время. Я занимаюсь этой тайной, ибо хочу быть человеком".
"Man is the secret. and it needs to be clued. And even if u clue it whole ur life, don't tell that u wasted ur time. I do this mistery just because i want to be a man".
