4.0

Dragostea mea n-a adus nimănui fericire, pentru că eu n-am jertfit nimic pentru cei pe care i-am iubit: am iubit doar pentru sine, pentru propria-mi plăcere; n-am încercat decît să satisfac ciudata cerință a inimii, absorbind cu lăcomie sentimentele, mîngîierile, bucuriile și suferințele – și niciodată nu reușeam să mă satur.

Hate the protagonist.

Oh, you destroy everything because you love too much?

Idiot. Truly a useless man.
Also worth noting, Lermontov is a Pushkin fanboy, which makes this book a sort of fanfic to Evgenij Onegin.
