The Baron: I’m not going. You know I’m not going. Oh, please let me stay.

The Baron: That isn’t true. You don’t want to be alone. You were in despair just now. I can’t leave you now. You mustn’t cry anymore. You must forget. Let me stay for just a little while. Ahh, please let me stay.
Grusinskaya: For just a minute then.”

“This socialism will develop in all its phases until it reaches its own extremes and absurdities.

—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
