Mikhail Bulgakov said this quote
“ Ruin, therefore, is not caused by lavatories but it's something that starts in people's heads. So when these clowns start shouting Stop the ruin! - I laugh!' 'I swear to you, I find it laughable! Every one of them needs to hit himself on the back of the head and then when he has knocked all the hallucinations out of himself and gets on with sweeping out backyards - which is his real job - all this ruin will automatically disappear ”
