Popular Dialogues

"Alex: I have reflected many times upon our rigid search. It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us, on the inside, looking out. Like you say, inside out. Jonathan, in this way, I will always be along the side of your life. And you will always be along the side of mine."

"Alex: You make sex often with American girl? Jonathan: Not really. Alex: What is mean by "not really?" Jonathan: I'm not a priest, but I'm not John Holmes either. Alex: I have heard of this John Holmes. He has premium penis. Jonathan: Yes, he did. Alex: Everyne in Ukraine has penis like that. Jonathan: Even the women? Alex: You make joke, yes? Jonathan: Yes."
