Theme of the issue: statements, sayings, phrases and quotes from Viktor Tsoi, the legendary leader of the rock group “Kino.

Tsoi quotes from interviews

“The worst thing is to be a target at a shooting range with bad shooters.”

“I am a free person because I have always done what I like and did not do what I don’t want.”

“It seems to me that the songs, the lyrics that I write, are very polysemantic, very associative, can be viewed from so many angles and can give each person what they would like to take from this song.”

“We treat popularity with humor. This is a random thing."

“People cannot think alike, but they must understand each other. That’s why they are people.”

“Cinema should tell stories.”

“...I don’t write poetry, only songs.”

“Music doesn’t owe anyone anything at all.”

“I affirm that good always triumphs over evil, and patience is stronger than a samurai sword.”

“Explaining a song is like explaining a joke. It is not interesting".

“...you can’t fool the authorities. They are like the public: they understand at a glance.”

“My soul is in my songs. And I live in hope for a better time.”

“Music is something for which I am willing to sacrifice almost everything.”

“Of course, I’m pleased that people like the music, but I understand perfectly well how much it’s a matter of getting it on time. In a sense, I got into it, if I like it, but I just as well might not have gotten into it. The songs wouldn’t get any worse, and neither would the music...”

“For our honesty, we can be forgiven for almost anything: and, say, insufficiently professional acting, and even insufficiently professional poetry. There are many examples of this. But when honesty disappears, nothing is forgiven.”

“I don’t take anything seriously in life and I don’t take it seriously. To be honest, I don’t take this life itself seriously, because I would have to be distracted by too many unnecessary things and do a lot of nonsense.”

“You know, I believe that if you start taking any kind of activity seriously, nothing good will come of it.”

"I do not regret anything. I am always responsible for my actions. It is important for me that my life is interesting. Everything else doesn’t interest me.”

“I would like the fans not to make idols out of us. And let them treat us like normal people. And don’t accept our songs as the ultimate truth. These are just songs written to the lyrics of one person who may be wrong.”

Strong quotes from Tsoi (30 quotes)

The songs and voice of Viktor Tsoi are the thoughts and voice of an entire generation. They were sung on every corner with a guitar, as their own experiences and feelings. The words of this man still resonate now and resonate in the hearts of those who were not yet born when they were written. Tsoi's powerful quotes are presented in this collection.

What I meant by change was the liberation of consciousness from all sorts of dogmas, from the stereotype of a small, worthless, indifferent person constantly looking “up.” I was waiting for changes in consciousness, and not for specific laws, decrees, appeals, plenums, congresses.

People cannot think alike, but they must understand each other. That's why they are people.

Remember that there is no prison worse than in the head...

For our honesty, we can be forgiven for almost anything: for example, insufficiently professional acting, and even insufficiently professional poetry. There are many examples of this. But when honesty disappears, nothing is forgiven.

I would like the fans not to make idols out of us, and let them treat us like normal people. And also - do not accept our songs as the ultimate truth. These are just songs written to the lyrics of one person who may be wrong.

My soul is in my songs. And I live in hope for a better time.

The only thing I wanted and want is for people to feel more free from circumstances, that is, for a person to preserve himself rather than some kind of external comfort.

Everyone says that you need to become someone. And I would like to remain myself.

I do not regret anything. I am always responsible for my actions. In general, it is important for me that my life is interesting. Everything else doesn't interest me.

People cannot think alike, but they must understand each other. That's why they are people.

Remember that there is no prison worse than in the head...

Everyone says we are together! Everyone talks, but not many know which one.

Every person has the right to say. And every person has the right to listen or not listen.

My soul is in my songs. And I live in hope for a better time.

I don’t like it when people lie to me, but I’m also tired of the truth.

Yes, I do pop music. Music should embrace everything: it should make you laugh when necessary, entertain when necessary, and make you think when necessary. The music should not just call for people to go smash the Winter Palace. They must listen to her.

I affirm that good always triumphs over evil, and patience is stronger than a samurai sword.

Music is something for which I am willing to sacrifice almost everything.

I am a free person because I have always done what I like and never done what I don’t want.

The only thing I wanted and want is for people to feel more free from circumstances, that is, for a person to preserve himself rather than some kind of external comfort.

Death is worth living, but love is worth waiting for.

I don’t even know how to live the next day, because we never make any plans, we never think about how we will play there or how to act so that this happens. We just live and live.

I do not regret anything. I am always responsible for my actions. In general, it is important for me that my life is interesting. Everything else doesn't interest me.

We waited for tomorrow, Every day we waited for tomorrow...

In Leningrad, rock is made by heroes, in Moscow by jesters.

I don’t like it when people lie to me, but I’m also tired of the truth.

I believe that a person lives on a planet, and not in a state.

God is not an idol or a general healer. This is God, and it is inappropriate to apply our ordinary emotions to him.

Everyone says we are together! Everyone talks, but not many know which one.

Try to escape the rain if it's inside.

  • Viktor Tsoi began his singing career at the age of 16 in the group “Ward No. 6”, which later turned into “Garin and the Hyperboloids”, and only then the group, qualitatively changing its composition over the course of several years, received the name “Kino”, chosen as simple and easy to remember .
  • In 1988, according to a survey of film critics from the Soviet Screen magazine, Tsoi was named the best actor of the year for his performance in the role of Moro.
  • He was expelled for poor academic performance from the art school named after V. Serov (now named after Nicholas Roerich), and entered SGPTU-61 to specialize in wood carving.

And we know that it has always been this way, That we love more by fate, Those who live according to different laws, And those who die young. If there is a flock, there is a shepherd, If there is a body, there must be a spirit. And if you have a pack of cigarettes in your pocket, then everything is not so bad today. You go to cut down a forest, and all you see are stumps. They say they can’t take risks, Because they also have a house, the light is on in the house. And I don’t know exactly which of them is right, Rain is waiting for me outside - dinner is waiting for them at home... ...And if you suddenly get bored of your gentle light, You will find what we need, THERE IS ENOUGH RAIN FOR EVERYONE. Death is worth living, but love is worth waiting for. And I dreamed: the world is ruled by love, And I dreamed: the world is ruled by dreams. And above this the star is shining beautifully, I woke up and realized that there was trouble. If the keys don’t fit to the doors, knock the doors down with your shoulder And I don’t know exactly which of us is right - rain is waiting for me outside, lunch is waiting for them at home Every apple has a place to fall, Every thief has an opportunity to steal, Every dog ​​has a stick and a bone And every wolf has teeth and anger! You must be strong, otherwise why should you be. And it seems to be alive and well, And it seems to live without bothering, So where did the sadness come from? Those who ran away from home at the age of 15 are unlikely to understand someone who studied in a special school. Anyone who has a good life plan is unlikely to think about anything else. My sun, look at me, My palm has turned into a fist, If you have gunpowder, give me fire... That's it! You call some of your friends, some are not there, and some are. There are many topics for conversation, there is time for conversation. There are still white white days, White mountains and white ice, But all I need is a few words and a PLACE TO STEP FORWARD I don’t like it when they lie to me, but I’m also tired of the truth. You are looking at the milky way; I am the night, and you are the essence of the morning. I am a dream, I am a moment, but you are not; I'm blind, but I see the light! I'm alone - but that doesn't mean I'm lonely. My tape recorder wheezes about the joys of the day. I remember that tomorrow I have several meetings ahead of me, and coffee in a famous cafe will warm me up. CHANGE! Our hearts demand it!!!! CHANGE! Our eyes demand it! There is impulse in our laughter and in our tears! CHANGE! We are waiting for changes! Two thousand years of war, a war for no particular reason, a war for the young, a cure for wrinkles. Everyone says that we are together, everyone says, but not many know in what form. Death is worth living, And love is worth waiting for. I have to come to my work at nine, but now it’s already ten minutes, and I’m just getting up. But maybe there will be at least a Day, Maybe there will be at least an Hour, When We are lucky! And every wolf has teeth and anger. Maybe tomorrow morning there will be sun, and that key will be in the keychain. And when it’s time to get up, we sit, we wait.
