The one who loves must share the fate of the one he said. Unsurpassed quotes from the novel “The Master and Margarita”
Love is one of the most beautiful and inexplicable feelings. She heals the soul, fills it with affection, warmth and kindness. She has many faces. After all, the concept of “love” means not only the relationship between a man and a woman, but also the love of children and parents, love for friends, love for the Motherland. And no matter who we feel this feeling for, it always awakens in us a willingness to help, protect and make sacrifices for the sake of our loved one.
“He who loves must share the fate of the one he loves”
- these are the words of Woland from M.A. Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita”. He pronounces them when he shows the Master his hero - Pontius Pilate. But this phrase refers not to the procurator himself, but to his dog Banga. This is a loyal, selfless and infinitely confident creature in the power of its owner. The fearless dog trusts Pilate and only from a thunderstorm, from the only thing he is afraid of, seeks protection from the procurator. Bunga feels and consoles his master, trying to express with his eyes that he is ready to face misfortune with him. In the end, only a devoted friend on four legs remains to share the fate of immortality with the procurator. After all, they, the dog and the man, truly love each other.
This idea is also clearly reflected in storyline The Master and Margarita. Great love inspires her to take decisive actions. The obstacles encountered on her way are not obstacles for her. The disappearance of a loved one, transformation into a witch, a meeting with Satan, a bloody ball - nothing prevents her from saving her master. Margarita brings him back from the madhouse, vows to cure him, and most importantly, she is ready to die with him. Without thinking for a second, she shares the fate of her lover, since she cannot live and breathe without him.
Indeed, if you have chosen a person and truly love him, you cannot have any barriers. But, as elsewhere, there is also an opposite side to this idea: sometimes obsession with feelings erases all the boundaries of morality, and a person takes rash and terrible actions for the sake of his loved one or with him. Someone will say that being guided by reason and not by feelings is cowardice, and in order to become happy, you need to give up the voice of reason. I believe that love needs to live by the power of feelings, and man – by the power of love and reason.
The correctness of this statement was proved to Mikhail Bulgakov himself by his women. Many believe that the prototype of Margarita in the novel was his last wife, Elena Sergeevna Shilovskaya. When they met, she, like Margarita, was married, then she left her husband, home, and former life and went to the Master. And they met Bulgakov in the same way as in the novel:
“Love jumped out between us, like a killer jumps out of the ground in an alley. And it amazed us both at once! That's how lightning strikes! The Finnish knife is so amazing!”
She was the writer's muse. He dedicated his novel to her. And she devoted herself entirely to her husband and work. Elena Sergeevna helped him as best she could: she wrote from dictation, read, and consoled him. After his death, she did everything she could to ensure that Bulgakov’s works saw the light of day. After all, she promised. And she kept her promise.
Another great example of sharing the fate of a loved one is the wives of the Decembrists. Women who had nothing to do with their husbands' affairs, carefree, noble, rich women renounced their prosperous lives and voluntarily followed their husbands anywhere. Nekrasov wrote about the exploits of the wives of the Decembrists in the poem “Russian Women”:
"No! I'm not a pathetic slave
I am a woman, a wife!
Let my fate be bitter -
I will be faithful to her!”
Love can be different and can manifest itself in different ways. But whatever the feeling, if it's real, we will, without hesitation or hesitation neither th share the lot the people we love.
Throughout Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita” runs the leitmotif of Margarita’s mercy, mercy dictated great love. Her feeling is all-consuming and limitless. Therefore, the phrase in the title of my work accurately characterizes the history of the relationship between the Master and Margarita. I believe that only love that does not require anything in return can be called real. This applies to all love (and not just the relationship between a man and a woman): the love of children for their parents (and vice versa), love for friends and, in general, love for one’s neighbor. After all, this is exactly the kind of selfless love that Jesus Christ preached. The good deeds that we do, driven by love, benefit our neighbors, and sometimes the good we do comes back to us a hundredfold. But still, when doing good, one cannot be guided by selfish goals, because love does not imply the concept of “should” or the conclusion “if I help him, then at the right moment he will be obliged to help me.” All good deeds are performed only at the call of the heart.
So Margarita always acted, listening to the dictates of her own heart, and all her motives were sincere. For her, the Master contains the whole world, and the romance of her beloved contains the purpose of her life. Margarita is determined to do anything for the Master, and love inspires her to this determination. It is she who does wonderful things: Margarita is ready to go with the Master on his final journey, and in this act her self-sacrifice is most clearly manifested. She is ready to share the Master’s fate, she is even ready to make a deal with the devil in order to save her loved one. In addition, even after becoming a witch, she does not lose her good intentions. Margarita's love never required giving, she was a giver, not a taker. This is the essence of true love. It can't be any other way. And may God grant that those who deserve it experience such a real feeling. Every person has passions in their life. First, a spark ignites, and then it seems that it has happened - this is exactly the long-awaited high feeling. Sometimes the feeling of falling in love lasts a long time, sometimes illusions are shattered almost immediately. But real love, no matter how pompous it may sound, it happens once every 100 years. This is the kind of love Bulgakov describes. This kind of love is described by Kuprin in the story “ Garnet bracelet" The only difference between the love stories depicted in these works is that in the novel “The Master and Margarita” this feeling is mutual.
I also believe that the phrase “Whoever loves must share the fate of the one he loves” is consonant with Saint-Exupery’s expression “We are responsible for those we have tamed.” We must be responsible for our feelings and, therefore, always share the fate of the people we love.
It was not by chance that I chose this topic. The problem it touches on interests me not only as a reader, but also as a person entering into adult life. Is it true that there is no place for selfishness in love? When a person loves, he no longer notices that he may feel cold, hurt,
Difficult. The main thing is that everything is fine with the one he loves. It seems to me that it is natural to make the person you love happy. If he feels bad, share his fate.
To prove this idea, I would like to turn to Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky’s novel “Crime and Punishment.” Oh, this Sonechka Marmeladova! How much she endured on her fragile shoulders... Fate does not give her peace and gives her, as another test, that same all-resurrecting love for Rodion Raskolnikov. It would seem, what could attract such an innocent soul in a convict, a lost person? Sonya doesn’t think about herself for a minute, doesn’t blame
Hero. She has only one goal - to save him and protect him from evil thoughts. The girl shares Raskolnikov’s fate, follows him, takes on a heavy cross. However, what might seem like torment to someone else, Sonya accepts as great happiness. It is not he who leads her to hard labor - she brings him to the light, gives him hope.
Let us recall Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita”. Like the novel itself, the love of the Master and Margarita delights me with its magical power. It is this strength that helps the heroine not only survive the loss of her lover, but also bring him back. However, as usual in life, for this she will have to go through a lot and decide on a lot. The master lived his book, and Margarita lived it and experienced it time after time, page after page. The novel about Pilate became a symbol of their love. Margarita shares the fate of her Master. She is ready to exchange the mansion for a closet in the basement and experiences every moment of trials with her beloved. Just think about it: all this time she is happy because she loves and can share his defeat with the Master and, believe me, she would be even happier if she could take on all his troubles.
In my opinion, the happiness of every person consists of the happiness of the one he loves. Therefore, true love, without a doubt, will take upon itself any burden, any fate.

17.1. What is N. A. Nekrasov’s innovation in the poetic embodiment of the theme of the poet and poetry?
Explanation.
Comments on essays.
17.1. What is N.A.’s innovation? Nekrasov in the poetic embodiment of the theme of the poet and poetry?
For Nekrasov, the theme of poetic creativity is closely connected with the theme of citizenship. According to Nekrasov, the poet does not have the right to ignore injustice and humiliation; the poet must take an active civic position in the fight against the oppressors, because the poet’s Muse is the “sister” of the peasant woman who was cut to death. Therefore, a poet must feel all human pain and serve humanity.
The topic can be revealed using the example of the poems “Yesterday at six o’clock ...”, “Poet and Citizen”, “Blessed is the gentle poet” and others.
17.2. Why does L. Tolstoy avoid glorifying the image of Kutuzov? (based on the novel "War and Peace".)
L.N. Tolstoy believes that a person, no matter how great he may be, cannot change the course of history. Kutuzov is no exception. The writer speaks with obvious sympathy about the commander, but avoids glorifying him.
All of Kutuzov’s behavior during the war with the French was the subordination of himself and the Russian army to the “inevitable course of events.” The council in Fili, the decision to leave Moscow (against the will of the emperor) are the most important milestones in the hero’s biography. In the episodes, the commander is shown as an old, frail man. It may seem that the decision to leave the historical capital of the state is the fruit of cowardice, the result of a fatal mistake. Some of the Russian generals think so too. But they are wrong. Kutuzov is truly wise. The capture of Moscow by the enemy becomes not a triumph, but a grave defeat for the demoralized French army.
In the novel “War and Peace,” the image of Kutuzov is not reduced only to some “commander’s virtues”: courage, the ability to lead troops on the battlefield, etc. No! In Tolstoy everything is deeper and more subtle. The greatness of Kutuzov lies in the fact that he does not try to resist the natural course of events, realizing that there is something stronger and more significant than his will.
17.3. “He who loves must share the fate of the one he loves” (based on M. Bulgakov’s novel “The Master and Margarita”).
The theme of love in the novel “The Master and Margarita” is one of the central themes. In the novel, we are presented with love that is regenerative and creative, love that is demonic and destructive.
The Master and Margarita are people of different social circles. The master is poor, Margarita is rich. The master lives in a cramped basement, but proudly fulfills his mission - he writes a novel. Margarita bathes in luxury, but her life is empty and monotonous. Both heroes are lonely and unhappy until they meet each other. They faced many trials. But it is love, which has brought so much grief, that helps the Master and Margarita withstand all the difficulties encountered along their path. Love purifies heroes and transforms them. The story of the Master and Margarita is a hymn to true love.
17.4. "Oh you, last love! (based on the works of F.I. Tyutchev).
For analysis it is necessary to take the poems of the “Denisevsky cycle”.
This “blissfully fatal” love lasted for fifteen years and ended only with the death of Elena Alexandrovna. She was twenty-three years younger than the poet, which did not prevent her, according to Georgievsky, who knew both of them well, from experiencing “such deep, such selfless, such passionate and energetic love that it gripped his entire being, and he remained forever her captive ...".
The poet was destined to outlive his beloved, he said that with her death he lost interest in life, moreover, he perceived life without her as a punishment:
You loved, and the way you love -
No, no one has ever succeeded.
Lord!.. and survive this...
And my heart didn’t break into pieces.
Poems dedicated to Elena Alexandrovna are a kind of diary of the poet, to whom he entrusts the most secret, intimate secrets of his heart and soul. Thanks to this selfless and strong love, Russian classical poetry has been replenished with magnificent lyric poems. The poet's suffering and tears resulted in an unforgettable cycle.
