Eleanor Tomlinson: Xenya
Quotes
-
Kolyma : Once, when I was 4, I won the record for beatings. My father beat me for half an hour, and I didn't cry. Not once.
Xenya : Why?
Kolyma : Why what?
Xenya : Why did not you cry?
Kolyma : Because men don't cry.
Xenya : Oh. Poor men. It is good to cry.
Kolyma : Are you happy when you cry?
Xenya : That is too hard a question. This is what I think. I think... that you do not cry, but I do not read. And that is worse than crying.
Kolyma : What do you mean, you don't read?
Xenya : Xenya does not know how to read. Poor Xenya.
