One day the students asked the teacher-polyglot Oleg Palamarchuk:
“Why do you ignore guides and test-books in English published in Cambridge or Oxford?”
“The matter is that in this world only a fish doesn’t know what water is, because it knows only water. And only the English people don’t know what English is, because they know only English.”

One day a student asked the teacher-polyglot:
What is the particularity of Russians?”
“Well, The Russians are different from other Europeans. When a Spaniard was modeling the guitar, he was thinking about Woman, that’s because this musical instrument has such a form. When an Italian was modeling the violin, he was thinking about Woman as well. And a Ukrainian, who modeled the bandura, thought about a Woman, his own woman. But I can’t understand: what was a Russian thinking about when he was modeling his balalaika?”

One day the students asked the teacher-polyglot Oleg Palamarchuk:
“What will happen to Ukraine if Russia raises its prices of oil and gas twice as high as they are just now?
“Then only wonder will save us,” replied the teacher.
“Do you think that Ukraine has no chance to be an independent state?”
“Why, no chance?” objected the teacher. “But, wonder!”
