Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
If not reason, then the devil.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

You are a man still young, so to say, in your first youth and so put intellect above everything.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Woe to the man who offends a small child!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
There is only one way to salvation, and that is to make yourself responsible for all men's sins. As soon as you make yourself responsible in all sincerity for everything and for everyone, you will see at once that this is really so, and that you are in fact to blame for everyone and for all things.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
They tease me now, telling me it was only a dream. But does it matter whether it was a dream or reality, if the dream made known to me the truth?
Fyodor Dostoevsky
And though I suffer for you, yet it eases my heart to suffer for you.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
They won't let me ... I can't be ... good!
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
I gave up caring about anything, and all the problems disappeared.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
