The great drama of Russian history has been between its state and society. Put simply, Russia has always had too much state and not enough society.

There's simply too much fuss about myself.

Sometimes too much to drink is barely enough.

'Great Expectations' has been described as 'Dickens's harshest indictment of society.' Which it is. After all, it's about money. About not having enough money; about the fever of the getting of money; about having too much money; about the taint of money.

I'm always hairy. I swear too much.

I've been way too blessed. Had too much fun, too many rewards.
