"No, I am not."
Raskolnikov got up from the sofa. As he had mounted the
stair? to Razumihin's, he had not reaHsed that he would be meet-
ing his friend face to face. Now, in a flash, he knew, that what
he was least of all disposed for at that moment was to be face to
face with any one in the wide world. His spleen rose within him.
He almost choked with rage at himself as soon as he crossed
Razumihin's threshold.
"Good-bye," he said abruptly, and walked to the door.
"Stop, stop! You queer fish."
"I don't want to," said the other, again pulling away hishand.
"Then why the devil have you come? Are you mad, or what?
Why, this is . . . almost insulting! I won't let you go like that."
"Well, then, I came to you because I know no one but you
who could help ... to begin . . . because you are kinder than any
one — cleverer, I mean, and can judge . . . and now I see that I
want nothing. Do you hear? Nothing at all . . . no one's services
... no one's sympathy. I am by myself . . . alone. Come, that's
enough. Leave me alone."
"Stay a minute, you sweep! You are a perfect madman. As
you like for all I care. I have no lessons, do you see, and I don't
care about that, but there's a bookseller, Heruvimov — and he
takes the place of a lesson. I would not exchange him for five
lessons. He's doing publishing of a kind, and issuing natural
science manuals and what a circulation they have! The very
titles are worth the money! You always maintained that I was a
fool, but by Jove, my boy, there are greater fools than I am!
Now he is setting up for being advanced, not that he has an ink-
ling of anything, but, of course, I encourage him. Here are two
signatures of the German text — in my opinion, the crudest
charlatanism; it discusses the question, 'Is woman a human be-
ing?' And, of course, triumphantly proves that she is. Heruvi-
mov isgoing to bring out this work as a contribution to the
woman question; I am translating it; he will expand these two
and a half signatures into six, we shall make up a gorgeous title
half a page long and bring it out at half a rouble. It will do! He
pays me six roubles the signature, it works out to fifteen roubles
for the job, and I've had six already in advance. When we have
finished this, we are going to begin a translation about whales,
