A dull, decent people, cherishing and fortifying their dullness behind a quarter of a million bayonets.
Тhere are people who never say anything but what is clever and good, yet one feels that they are dull-witted people.[Бывают люди, которые всегда говорят только умные и хорошие слова, но чувствуешь, что они тупые люди.]
You now have learned enough to see that Cats are much like you and me and other people whom we find possessed of various types of mind. For some are sane and some are mad and some are good and some are bad and some are better, some are worse – but all may be described in verse.
You must trust people, or life becomes impossible.[Надо всем верить, иначе жить нельзя.]
You learned people have dealings with the devil.[Also known as:]You scholars, you’re in communication with the devil.[Vous autres savants, vous avez commerce avec le diable.]
You entertain people who are satisfied. Hungry people can’t be entertained – or people who are afraid. You can’t entertain a man who has no food.
You cannot save people, you can only love them.
You can’t live your life for other people. You’ve got to do what’s right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.
You build a perimeter of people that are really important to you.
You also have to be careful about how much you reveal to people that look up to you so much.
Will people ever be wise enough to refuse to follow bad leaders or to take away the freedom of other people?
When you give people understanding and encouragement a funny little meek childish look abashes their eyes, no matter what they’ve been doing they weren’t sure it was right – lambies all over the world.
