More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Only one thing matters, one thing to be able to dare!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It is better to be unhappy and know the worst, than to be happy in a fool's paradise.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
But man is so addicted to systems and to abstract conclusions that he is prepared deliberately to distort the truth, to close his eyes and ears, but justify his logic at all cost.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
In a way there's only a fine shade of difference between the healthy and the deranged.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Thus, as a result of heightened consciousness, a man feels as if it's all right if he's bad as long as he knows it- as though that were any consolation.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Homeopathic doses are perhaps the strongest.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It's the great mystery of human life that old grief passes gradually into quiet tender joy.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I want peace yes, I'd sell the whole world for a farthing, straight off, so long as I was left in peace. Is the world to go to pot, or am I to go without my tea? I say that the world may go to pot for me so long as I always get my tea. Did you know that, or not? Well, anyway, I know that I am a blackguard, a scoundrel, an egoist, a sluggard.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I swear to you gentlemen, that to be overly conscious is a sickness, a real, thorough sickness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
One must love life before loving its meaning ... yes, and when the love of life disappears, no meaning can console us.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
... the more I learned, the more conscious did I become of the fact that I was ridiculous. So that for me my years of hard work at the university seem in the end to have existed for the sole purpose of demonstrating and proving to me, the more deeply engrossed I became in my studies, that I was an utterly absurd person
Fyodor Dostoevsky
A fool with a heart and no sense is just as unhappy as a fool with sense and no heart.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I bless the rising sun each day, and, as before, my heart sings to meet it, but now I love even more its setting, its long slanting rays & the soft tender gentle memories that come with them...’ -Father Zossima
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
...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
Woe to the man who offends a small child!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Lying to ourselves is more deeply ingrained than lying to others.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
What is the use of Christ's words, unless we set an example?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Know that I've forgotten precisely nothing but I've driven it all out of my head for a time, even the memories--until I've radically improved my circumstances. Then...then you'll see, I'll rise from the dead!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
In sinning, each man sins against all, and each man is at least partly guilt for another's sin. There is no isolated sin.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
