“There's a scientific hypothesis that every person's name is a primary suggestive command that contains the entire script of their life in highly concentrated form. . . . According to this point of view, there is only a limited number of names, because society only needs a limited number of human types.

If you pick up fools, you'll turn into a fool yourself.” PeopleIfsGivingHumansLongBookTurnsReadingImagineFoolPicksDistanceProfoundContactLiftsRangeLive LifeDriversTravelerTruckLong DistanceCabTruck Driver Author:Victor Pelevin
