Чеховой, 28 мая 1890) —...I have still a jar and a half of coffee; I feed on locusts and wild honey; I shall dine to-day at Irkutsk. The further east one gets the dearer everything is.

    - Совестно мне обирать тебя, ангел мой; знаю, что сам ты едва концы с концами сводишь и акридами питаешься, но ничего я со своим нахальством не поделаю. (А. Чехов, Отец) — 'It hurts me to plunder you in this way, angel mine; I know that you can hardly make both ends meet, and live - so to say - on locusts. But with impudence like mine you can do nothing.'
