More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Sometimes a man is intensely, even passionately, attached to suffering — that is a fact.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
To love another person is to see them as God intended them to be.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
At such times I felt something was drawing me away, and I kept fancying that if I walked straight on, far, far away and reached that line where the sky and earth meet, there I should find the key to the mystery, there I should see a new life a thousand times richer and more turbulent than ours.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Totally without hope one cannot live. To live without hope is to cease to live. Hell is hopelessness. It is no accident that above the entrance to Dante's hell is the inscription: Leave behind all hope, you who enter here.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life is in ourselves and not in the external.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The degree of a nation’s civilization can be seen in the way it treats its prisoners
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Whatever distinguishes one lump of flesh from another when we're alive, we're all the same once we're dead. Just used-up shells.
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
To kill someone for committing murder is a punishment incomparably worse than the crime itself. Murder by legal sentence is immeasurably more terrible than murder by brigands.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It's not miracles that generate faith, but faith that generates miracles.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It was a marvelous night, the sort of night one only experiences when one is young. The sky was so bright, and there were so many stars that, gazing upward, one couldn't help wondering how so many whimsical, wicked people could live under such a sky.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
On our earth we can only love withsuffering and through suffering.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Let us be servants in order to be leaders.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
You ache with it all and the more mysterious it is, the more you ache.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
You can be sincere and still be stupid.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
The sky was horribly dark , but one could distinctly see tattered clouds , and between them fathomless black patches. Suddenly I noticed in one of these patches a star , and began watching it intently. That was because that star had given me an idea : I decided to kill myself that night .
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I utter what you would not dare think
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I am a sick man...I am a spiteful man. I am a most unpleasant man.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Every member of the society spies on the rest, and it is his duty to inform against them. All are slaves and equal in their slavery... The great thing about it is equality... Slaves are bound to be equal.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
