What can you infer about Sergei's character based on the way he uses his first two wishes?

Sergei uses his first two wishes to wish for 1) to cure the growing cancer in his sister's lungs and 2) to cure 'Sveta's  boy' (his own son) who has an ailment which the doctors think will not allow him to mentally develop beyond his age of three years. We can infer from these wishes that Sergei is a kind-hearted, humble individual who is later hardened in life by his surrounding situations, i.e. living in Russia, as the son of a Zionist etc. We know that of the three wishes that Sergei could ever be granted by the magic goldfish, he uses the first two to help those around him, with little regard for his own self or his personal aspirations.

USPshnik [31]
<span>The use of the phrasing "a date which will live in infamy" is an example of an application of an aphorism in speechwriting. An aphorism is a short saying which encapsulates a meaning or idea so fully that it can continue to live on in its own right beyond the context of its initial application. FDR's statement falls squarely into this category, having been used in continual application for many decades since its initial use.</span>
