There is probably ordinary love - the mutual attraction of two hearts, two souls. But there is, undoubtedly, another love, painful, burning, merciless - the irresistible attraction of two dissimilar people who simultaneously hate and adore each other. When I looked at her, I wanted to kill her and kiss her in equal measure. When I looked at her. I felt an irresistible desire to embrace her, press her to me and strangle her. In herself, in her gaze, there was something insidious, elusive, arousing a feeling of hatred. And maybe that’s why I loved her so madly.

"Winter's Tale"
- What are you doing here? - asked Little Bear. “I’m waiting for you to recover,” answered the Hedgehog. - For a long time? - All winter. When I found out that you had eaten too much snow, I immediately dragged all my supplies to you... - And all winter you sat next to me on a stool? “Yes, I gave you a spruce decoction and applied dried grass to your stomach...” “I don’t remember,” said the Bear. - Still would! - Hedgehog sighed. “You’ve been saying all winter that you’re a snowflake.” I was so afraid that you would melt by spring...
“Hedgehog in the Fog”, Sergei Kozlov
- I definitely will, do you hear? “I will,” said Little Bear. The hedgehog nodded. - I will definitely come to you, no matter what happens. I will always be near you. The Hedgehog looked at the Little Bear with quiet eyes and was silent. - Well, what are you silent? “I believe,” said the Hedgehog.
"The Velveteen Rabbit" by Margery Williams
“You only become Real,” the wise old Leather Horse inspired the Velveteen Rabbit, “if someone loves you for a long, long time.” Not just playing with you, but REALLY loving you. - Does it hurt? - asked the Rabbit. “Sometimes,” answered the Leather Horse, because she always spoke only the truth. “But if you are Real, you are ready to endure pain.” - How does this happen? Once and done, as if you were wound up with a key, or gradually? “Gradually,” said the Leather Horse. - You are becoming Real. This takes a lot of time. That is why this so rarely happens to those who easily quarrel, are intractable, or demand special treatment. It usually happens that by the time you become Real, your fur is already frayed, your eyes are falling out, your limbs are dangling, and in general you have a very pitiful appearance. But this will have absolutely no meaning, because the one who has become Real cannot be ugly. Except in the eyes of those who don’t understand anything.
“Like a fox cub to a fox cub”, Natalya Sizonenko
“Little fox,” said the little fox to the little fox, “please remember that if you feel hard, bad, sad, scared, if you’re tired, just stretch out your paw.” And I will extend mine to you, wherever you are, even if there are other stars or everyone is walking on their heads. Because the sadness of one little fox divided into two cubs is not scary at all. And when another paw holds you by the paw, what difference does it make what else is there in the world?

"The Little Prince", Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Adults love numbers very much. When you tell them that you have a new friend, they will never ask about the most important thing. They will never say: “What’s his voice like? What games does he like to play? Does he catch butterflies? They ask: “How old is he? How many brothers does he have? How much does he weigh? How much does his father earn? And after that they imagine that they recognize the person.
“A fine snow was falling. There was a thaw,” Sergey Kozlov
And in the evening, when they were drinking tea, Little Bear said: “I don’t understand how soon, but someday everything will certainly get better.” - Still would! - said the Bunny. And the Hedgehog thought: “It can’t be that everything is bad and bad - after all, it must be good someday!”
