Yuri Nikulin is one of the most famous Soviet actors who fell in love with the audience in the comedies of L. Gaidai. Someone liked him more when he performed in the circus. Surprisingly: starting late to act in films, Yuri Nikulin immediately won the love of the audience. He was not only a talented artist, but also a man with a big and kind heart. Below are the most famous quotes by Yuri Nikulin.
Oh happiness
Yuri Nikulin was known for his kind and generous nature. He liked to give people fun and make them happy. This allowed us to do work in the circus, but the famous artist was so in everyday life. Here is one of the famous quotes by Yuri Nikulin:
"Never take revenge on vile people, just become happy, and they will not survive it."
This is wise advice. Often, when people are offended, they begin to think about how they would take revenge on a person. But you don’t need to do this: people just spend time on negative emotions instead of helping others. Having become happy, a person will see that the villainy of detractors has not reached the goal. Strong people can be happy.
“You know, I have my own concept of happiness. If each of us manages to make another person happy - even one, everyone on earth will be happy.”
If all people adhered to this concept, then many conflicts and misunderstandings could be avoided. Most do not think about making another person happy. But a happy person wants to make another happy, and loved ones will be glad that you are doing well. And to give happiness is not so difficult, you need to at least just ask what can please a person.
About the circus
Yuri Vladimirovich Nikulin worked at the Circus on Tsvetnoy Boulevard for 50 years. For him, the circus was not just a job. To amuse people, to give them smiles, happiness was his vocation.
"The word" circus "was real, understandable, tangible to me."
In almost all, this place is associated with performances of clowns, trained animals and unusual numbers. But this quote from Yuri Nikulin about the circus shows his attitude to him not as work, but as an integral part of his life.
"I liked the circus so much and remembered the clowns so much that I wanted, like many children, to become a clown at all costs."
Initially, Yuri Vladimirovich entered VGIK, where he was not accepted because of a lack of acting talent. But he managed to enter the School-Studio clownery.

Shuydin was known throughout the country. To give people laughter and a good mood was a real vocation of Yuri Nikulin.
About training

Then Vladimir Andreevich created his own mobile theater and organized a football team.

All the fundamentals of a future nature are laid in childhood, parents form relationships with people and family. It is the parents who, having seen the talent of the child, should support him and help him develop. Parents are role models and are the first and most important teachers for the child.
"Be self-taught, don't wait for life to teach you."
Of course, some may argue that trial and error is the most effective teaching method. But it is best to learn by analyzing your own and other people's behavior. Enrich your knowledge not only by reading books, but also in the domestic plan. You need to constantly strive for self-improvement.
