More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life is paradise, and we are all in paradise, but we refuse to see it.
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
Nothing in this world is harder than speaking the truth, nothing easier than flattery.
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
Beyond the grave they will find nothing but death. But we shall keep the secret, and for their happiness we shall allure them with the reward of heaven and eternity.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
My friends, God is necessary for me if only because he is the one being who can be loved eternally.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Wealth is the number of things one can do without.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
There is no virtue if there is no immortality.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
At first, art imitates life. Then life will imitate art.Then life will find its very existence from the arts.
