More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
It’s not God that I do not accept, you understand, it is this world of God’s, created by God, that I do not accept and cannot agree to accept.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Every member of the society spies on the rest, and it is his duty to inform against them. All are slaves and equal in their slavery... The great thing about it is equality... Slaves are bound to be equal.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life is paradise, and we are all in paradise, but we refuse to see it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Since I wasn't consulted at the time of the creation of the world, I reserve for myself the right to have my own opinion about it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Be not forgetful of prayer. Every time you pray, if your prayer is sincere, there will be new feeling and new meaning in it, which will give you fresh courage, and you will understand that prayer is an education.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The prince says that the world will be saved by beauty! And I maintain that the reason he has such playful ideas is that he is in love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
To cook your hare you must first catch it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

If man has one good memory to go by, that may be enough to save him.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
You are a man still young, so to say, in your first youth and so put intellect above everything.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Without God all things are permitted.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Compassion is the chief law of human existence.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
God has such gladness every time he sees from heaven that a sinner is praying to Him with all his heart, as a mother has when she sees the first smile on her baby's face.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Love life more than the meaning of it?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Man is sometimes extraordinarily, passionately, in love with suffering.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
One's own free and unfettered volition, one's own caprice, however wild, one's own fancy, inflamed sometimes to the point of madness - that is the one best and greatest good, which is never taken into consideration because it cannot fit into any classification and the omission of which sends all systems and theories to the devil.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I am strongly convinced that not only too much consciousness but even any consciousness at all is a sickness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Nothing is more seductive for a man than his freedom of conscience, but nothing is a greater cause of suffering.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Everything seems stupid when it fails.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
