Asimov, Isaac. In Memory Yet Green. The date of my birth, as I celebrate it, was January 2, 1920. It could not have been later than that. It might, however, have been earlier. Allowing for the uncertainties of the times, of the lack of records, of the Jewish and Julian calendars, it might have been as early as October 4, 1919. There is, however, no way of finding out. My parents were always uncertain and it really doesn't matter. I celebrate January 2, 1920, so let it be.
Oficiālā Aizeka Azimova Dzimšanas diena. Taču pēc paša autora rakstītā pilnīgi iespējams, ka viņš dzimis vēl 1919. gadā. Pilsoņu kara laiks un nesaistes ar ebreju un Jūlija/Gregora kalendāriem. Emigrācija uz ASV. Tāpēc skaidrības nav. Dzimis viņš ir Smoļenskas apgabalā.
Tik un tā - liela personība.
