From The Storm by Aleksandr Nikolaevich Ostrovsky

male · defiant · 1:09 min

They may know you, for all I care, but I don't want to know you. (KULIGIN: Why insult an honest man, sir?) Am I to account to you for what I say or do? Let me tell you I allow no one to criticise my actions--no, not folks of far more consequence than you. I shall think of you as I choose to think of you. Others may say you're an honest man, but I look upon you as a brigand, and that's all about it. You seem anxious to hear my opinion, so here it is! I say you're a brigand, and nothing else! Do you want to have the law of me, hey? Very well then, let me tell you you're a worm. If I choose, I spare you; if I choose, I can trample you under foot!
