More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Gambling is a most foolish and imprudent pursuit.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
On our earth we can only love withsuffering and through suffering.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If someone proved to me that Christ is outside the truth, and that in reality the truth were outside of Christ, then I should prefer to remain with Christ rather than with the truth.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If it were considered desirable to destroy a human being, the only thing necessary would be to give his work a character of uselessness
Fyodor Dostoevsky
We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I wanted to discuss the suffering of humanity in general, but perhaps we'd better confine ourselves to the sufferings of children.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It is a law of nature that every decent man on earth is bound to be a coward and a slave
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If the person laughs well, they are a good person.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The formula 'Two and two make five' is not without its attractions.
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
Love a man, even in his sin, for that love is a likeness of the divine love, and is the summit of love on earth.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
May you be for ever blessed for that moment of bliss and happiness which you gave to another lonely and grateful heart. Isn't such a moment sufficient for the whole of one's life?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Men do not accept their prophets and slay them, but they love their martyrs and worship those whom they have tortured to death.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
To crush, to annihilate a man utterly, to inflict on him the most terrible of punishments so that the most ferocious murderer would shudder at it and dread it beforehand, one need only give him work of an absolutely, completely useless and irrational character.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The essence of religious feeling does not come under any sort of reasoning or atheism, and has nothing to do with any crimes or misdemeanors. There is something else here, and there will always be something else - something that the atheists will for ever slur over they will always be talking of something else.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The darker the night, the brighter the stars, The deeper the grief, the closer is God!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
How good life is when one does something good and just!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Every man has some reminiscences which he would not tell to everyone, but only to his friends.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life is what matters, life alone - the continuous, eternal process of discovering life - and not the discovery itself.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
For the secret of man's being is not only to live but to have something to live for. Without a stable conception of the object of life, man would not consent to go on living, and would rather destroy himself than remain on earth, though he had bread in abundance.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
