Faina Ranevskaya is known throughout the world for her witty, ironic, funny and truthfully accusatory statements. Many of them have become aphorisms, popular expressions. This actress knew no equal - she was quoted by generations, and until now the words of Ranevskaya are the standard of wit and humor. The contribution of this great woman to Russian theatrical and cinematic art is invaluable. Let's remember today one of the most famous phrases of Faina Ranevskaya, which is relevant to this day: "It is better to be a good person who swears than a quiet well-bred creature."
Let's think deep
Ranevskaya very accurately described our society. If we think globally, then, looking into history, we can find a huge number of examples of sincere people with noble impulses and intentions to improve our world, to eradicate injustice. ATAs a result, many of them were burned at the stake, shot, killed in various ways for their honest, courageous words and deeds. While the cunning ones, who remained silent and sat in the corner, having deceived everyone, successfully got away with it.
This is how our world is tripled - the winner is the person who managed to say in time what others wanted to hear from him, and real personalities are abandoned, expelled and unnecessary. Ranevskaya is against this: indeed, it is better to be a decent person and swear than to silently, quietly hate others and pretend to be good. The truth is more expensive for a great actress. Let's be completely in solidarity with this.
What prevents us from being ourselves?
Impulsive people like Faina Ranevskaya very often have an explosive temper. They are interesting and unpredictable, their mood is impossible to predict. These individuals do not hide their thoughts, share ardent judgments with others, often without observing censorship, and why? Who are they afraid of? Why should a strong and free person have some "filters" that prevent him from being sincere? If he wants to say that, why can't he do it? If someone does not like this style of speech, please do not use it and do not communicate with those who use it, it is your choice. Thus (using obscene language) we protect ourselves from the company of well-behaved silent people, who unquestioningly observe the rules and principles established by society in everything.
You can swear and be a good person! Just each ofus expresses his emotions in different ways: someone is sincere and honest, while someone prefers to put on a mask and hide his true insides. If you are brave enough and desperate enough and you have the willpower and courage to say exactly what you think, try it - it is much more correct than keeping your thoughts in your head, showing a completely different attitude in reality.
Which would you choose: the polite hypocrisy or the harsh truth?
Hypocrisy is a disgusting quality, which, unfortunately, is very common in people. It would seem that everything is so simple - tell the truth and that's it, but no. Difficult, difficult and scary. It's much easier to pretend to be who the other person wants you to be. After all, acting in this way, it is easier to get someone's location, trust. You can say something neutral that will not go against the opinion of the interlocutor - let him think that he agrees with him, but in reality everything is not at all like that. Keep silent, and then let him figure out what is there and how. Hence quarrels, misunderstandings and a number of human problems of enormous proportions. Here's another proof that it's better to be a decent person who swears than a "quiet, well-mannered creature".
Profanity in our lives
From early childhood, we are shaped by the realization that obscene language is evil, that we need to be polite, friendly and affectionate. “Baby,” they say to the child, “don’t say the words “damn”, “damn”, “kick-ass” and “zadolbalo” - this is ugly.after all, you are a girl!" And so it is in almost every family. Is this right? The child will grow up, and sooner or later he will still learn all those "terrible" words that you so carefully tried to protect him from. terrible - what in most cases the younger generation suffers: obscene language takes the main place in people's speech, replacing the usual vocabulary.
Let's look at things from a realist perspective: obscene language is a separate part of our language. It has its own special properties. For example, when reading the poems of Yesenin and Mayakovsky, you can often come across a "swear word", but in most cases it is used so appropriately and accurately that there is no indignation or doubt. These poets were brave and free people, despite the time in which they had to exist. They were able to keep their hard, unbending inner core and even "infect" other people with it. The work of Yesenin and Mayakovsky is another confirmation of the accuracy of the expression "it is better to be a good person who swears than a quiet, well-bred creature."
Checkmate - is it really that bad?
Mat is not always obscenity and aggression. It is such vocabulary that can decorate, sometimes even create a joke, ideally complement a witty and sarcastic phrase, clearly and clearly express your state of mind. You just need to know how to use it, there is no need to be afraid of such words. You should also not insert them through each letter as an attempt to assert yourself and impress others,but you can use it accurately and to the point, but this is far from being given to everyone. If you are a weak-willed and timid person, then, most likely, such a lexicon is not for you. It requires impulsiveness, desperation and independence from other people's opinions, spiritual freedom and space, a good sense of humor and language.
It's better to be a good swearing person…
Even if your speech is full of swear words, and your thoughts are crumpled and confused, you will still remain a good person if you have inner strength - your core. Believe me, "it's better to be a well-mannered swearing person" than a quiet bastard. If you combine aggressiveness and unpredictability with honesty and truthfulness, you definitely will not keep a stone in your bosom. But what can be expected from people who never say what they think, from those who use refined and polite words in their speech, just so as not to seem somehow unworthy and wrong to others? Nothing good or decent, just fickleness and hypocrisy.
Faina Ranevskaya once again tells us that openness and sincerity should be valued and that "it's better to be a good person who swears" than a vile quiet and coward.
