More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Break what must be broken, once for all, that's all, and take the suffering on oneself.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Gambling is a most foolish and imprudent pursuit.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Suffering is the sole origin of consciousness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Or renounce life altogether! Accept fate obediently as it is, once and for all, and stifle everything in myself, renouncing any right to act, to live, to love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
He does not like showing his feelings and would rather do a cruel thing than open his heart freely.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The consciousness of life is higher than life.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man's life is made up of nothing, but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I agree that two and two make four is an excellent thing but to give everything its due, two and two make five is also a very fine thing.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The more I detest men individually the more ardent becomes my love for humanity.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I sometimes think love consists precisely of the voluntary gift by the loved object of the right to tyrannize over it.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Hell is the inability to love.
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
The Russian soul is a dark place.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Beggars, especially noble beggars, should never show themselves in the street they should ask for alms through the newspapers. It's still possible to love one's neighbor abstractly, and even occasionally from a distance, but hardly ever up close.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Above all, don't lie to yourself.
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
Granted I am a babbler, a harmless vexatious babbler, like all of us. But what is to be done if the direct and sole vocation of every intelligent man is babble, that is, the intentional pouring of water through a sieve?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It is better to be unhappy and know the worst, than to be happy in a fool's paradise.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
How many ideas have there been in the history of man which were unthinkable ten years before they appeared?
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
