Anton Chekhov
Love, friendship and respect do not unite people as much as common hatred for something.
Anton Chekhov
At the door of every happy person there should be a man with a hammer whose knock would serve as a constant reminder of the existence of unfortunate people.
Anton Chekhov
It's worth living abroad to study up on genteel and delicate manners. The maid smiles continuously she smiles like a duchess on a stage, while at the same time it is clear from her face that she is exhausted from overwork.
Anton Chekhov
There is nothing new in art except talent.
Anton Chekhov
It's even pleasant to be sick when you know that there are people who await your recovery as they might await a holiday.
Anton Chekhov

Anton Chekhov
Revolting means for good ends make the ends of themselves revolting.
Anton Chekhov
Better a debauched canary than a pious wolf.
Anton Chekhov
When a man fails to understand something he is conscious of a discord, and seeks for the cause of it not in himself, as he should, but outside himself - hence the war with what he does not understand.
Anton Chekhov
A woman can become a man's friend only in the following stages - first an acquantaince, next a mistress, and only then a friend.
Anton Chekhov
When a woman isn't beautiful, people always say, 'You have lovely eyes, you have lovely hair.'
Anton Chekhov
we all have too many wheels, screws and valves to judge each other on first impressions or one or two pointers. I don't understand you, you don't understand me and we don't understand ourselves.
Anton Chekhov
The world is, of course, nothing but our conception of it.
Anton Chekhov
All the great sages are as despotic as generals, and as ignorant and as indelicate as generals, because they feel secure of impunity.
Anton Chekhov
Humankind has understood history as a series of battles because, to this day, it regards conflict as the central facet of life.
Anton Chekhov
For the salvation of his soul the Muslim digs a well. It would be a fine thing if each of us were to leave behind a school, or a well, or something of the sort, so that life would not pass by and retreat into eternity without a trace.
Anton Chekhov
People understand God as the expression of the most lofty morality. Maybe He needs only perfect people.
Anton Chekhov
