Well, if we compare somehow, maybe this is my personal view, because I am a northern person, and whether northern or northwestern is also a question. I just noticed earlier, even in childhood, and this has not changed at all, you can even find it in my old books, that I often stated that northern people seem somehow more precise, attentive, well-mannered, hardworking, even more successful in every sense, even with fewer illnesses. Although, supposedly one should think, how so? For northern people there is less sun, less vitamin D, blah blah blah. But that is how it is. For some reason southern people, if you even look at their faces, they are more similar to disproportionate people. Their forehead part is crooked, this protruding large one, their eyes are completely different, completely, their jaw may be very pronounced, they are healthier, very big. And northerners are more, even if you are in a group somewhere, in a team of directors who make films, then if you are looking for noble characters by face, by appearance, no matter what country, even in Japan, then southerners are not very suitable. Southerners will look more like criminal people, imagine, more aggressive or ill-mannered, well, that is, of lower class. And northerners, they are as if more purebred. Well, again, this is a rough comparison, but it is simply that this is not the first time I notice it, but since I notice it, why should I not record it.

Now I set myself such a task, that further, if I visit some next country or city, I will definitely pay attention to what it is: northern, southern, western, eastern. And to look, what is the general, what is there? What is in common with other countries, for example, if I was also in the west, as an example, or in the east. But the question... I understand that people will probably want to take this immediately upon themselves, and someone will immediately now put a label on themselves: “Here I was born in the south, therefore I am bad.” No, it is not about where you were born, actually. No. I am not talking now about your personality and “self-love” in quotation marks. You see, a person can be born anywhere. The question is where he further heads and what he chooses, which side. Why is the philosopher’s stone in the east? Why is the ladder to the east in all sorts of Masonic charters, well not charters, these old illustrations on engravings? It is clear that quite possibly...
