Better to do nothing than to do nothing

Having lived a long and challenging life, Leo Nikolayevich left behind not only brilliant works but also numerous diaries, notebooks, and articles. In addition to the writer's brilliant thoughts, this book includes the memories of colleagues and close ones of Leo Nikolayevich, in which he appears before us as a thinking, witty, judgmental, sensitive, and hurtful person – in general, a very ordinary person with characteristics unique to him, just like all of us.
