RU Quote from this masterpiece:

Булгаков: МАСТЕР И МАРГАРИТА, Глава 2

— Имя?

— Мое? — торопливо отозвался арестованный, всем существом выражая готовность отвечать толково, не вызывать более гнева.

Прокуратор сказал негромко:

— Мое — мне известно. Не притворяйся более глупым, чем ты есть. Твое.

— Иешуа, — поспешно ответил арестант.

“It really is a nice theory. The only defect I think it has is probably common to all philosophical theories. It's wrong. You may suspect me of proposing another theory in its place; but I hope not, because I'm sure it's wrong too if it is a theory.” -- Saul Aaron Kripke in "Naming and Necessity"
