More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
It is amazing what one ray of sunshine can do for a man!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I am a sick man...I am a spiteful man. I am an unattractive man. I think my liver is diseased. Then again, I don't know a thing about my illness I'm not even sure what hurts.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Remember that you must never sell your soul. Never accept payment in advance.... Never give a work to the printer before it is finished. This is the worst thing you can do.... It constitutes the murder of your own ideas.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The chief thing is to love others like yourself, that's the chief thing, and that's everything nothing else is wanted - you will find out at once how to arrange it all.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The more I detest men individually the more ardent becomes my love for humanity.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
I may be mistaken but it seems to me that a man may be judged by his laugh, and that if at first encounter you like the laugh of a person completely unknown to you, you may say with assurance that he is good.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If thou love each thing thou wilt perceive the mystery of God in all.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Happiness lies not in happiness but only in the attempt to achieve it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Only one thing matters, one thing to be able to dare!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life is in ourselves and not in the external.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
...one may say anything about the history of the world - anything that might enter the most disordered imagination. The only thing one can't say is that it's rational.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
He who desires to see the living God face-to-face should not seek him in the empty, firmament of his mind, but in human love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
But how could you live and have no story to tell?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
One can't understand everything at once, we can't begin with perfection all at once! In order to reach perfection one must begin by being ignorant of a great deal. And if we understand things too quickly, perhaps we shan't understand them thoroughly.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I have been tortured with longing to believe ... and the yearning grows stronger the more cogent the intellectual difficulties stand in the way.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It's not miracles that generate faith, but faith that generates miracles.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
There is no subject so old that something new cannot be said about it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
