Fyodor Dostoevsky
The more I love humanity in general, the less I love man in particular.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

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
My friends, God is necessary for me if only because he is the one being who can be loved eternally.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I punish myself for my whole life, my whole life I punish.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Nothing is more seductive for a man than his freedom of conscience, but nothing is a greater cause of suffering.
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
Love the animals. God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Don't trouble it, don't harass them, don't deprive them of their happiness, don't work against God's intent.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
