Russian classics more than 100 years ago, I wrote a letter to his brother, a talented artist, but infirmity and suffering from binge drinking. Anton Chekhov, knowing the weakness of his brother, and always worried about him upset due care attitude to his brother's gift. He left an emotional, frank letter that Website will certainly advise you to read and.
Moscow, 1886.
You have often complained to me that you "do not understand!". On this even Goethe and Newton did not complain ... You perfectly understand ... If you do not understand myself, it is not the fault of others ...
I assure you that, as a brother and a close man for you, I understand you and heartily sympathize with you ... all your good qualities, I know, like the five fingers, appreciate them and treat them with the deepest respect. I am, if you want to prove that I understand you, I can even list these qualities. I think you are kind to the rag, generous, not selfish, delishsya last penny, sincere; you're a stranger to envy and hatred, naive, sorry for people and animals, not Yechida, forgiving, trusting ... You have gifted over the fact that no other: you have talent. This talent places you above millions of people on earth for one artist alone account for 2 000 000 ...
Talent puts you in a special position: whether you're a toad or a tarantula, and it would then be respected, because the talent is forgiven everything. The disadvantage is you have only one. It is false and your soil, and your sorrow and your catarrh of the intestines. This is - your extreme bad manners. Excuse me, but veritas magis amicitiae ... The fact is that life has its own conditions ... To feel at ease in an intellectual environment not to be among her strange and I myself will not be burdened by it, to be known manner mannered ... Talent has brought you in this environment, you belong to it, but ... you pull on it, and you have to balance between the public and cultural tenants vis-a-vis. It affects flesh philistine, who grew up on the rod, at reynskovogo cellar on handouts. Win it difficult, terribly difficult.

They are not talkative and do not climb to the revelation, when they do not ask ... Out of respect they are more silent to foreign ears.
