More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky
I drink because I wish to multiply my sufferings.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Obedience, fasting, and prayer are laughed at, yet only through them lies the way to real true freedom. I cut off my superfluous and unnecessary desires, I subdue my proud and wanton will and chastise it with obedience, and with God's help I attain freedom of spirit and with it spiritual joy.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Atheism: It seeks to replace in itself the moral power of religion, in order to appease the spiritual thirst of parched humanity and save it not by Christ, but by force.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Luxuries are easy to take up but very difficult to give up
Fyodor Dostoevsky
But gamblers know how a man can sit for almost twenty-four hours at cards, without looking to right, or to left.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
We do not understand that life is paradise, for it suffices only to wish to understand it, and at once paradise will appear in front of us in its beauty.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Because I'm a Karamazov. Because when I fall into the abyss, I go straight into it, head down and heels up, and I'm even pleased that I'm falling in just such a humiliating position, and for me I find it beautiful.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Above all, don't lie to yourself.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
A widow, the mother of a family, and from her heart she produces chords to which my whole being responds.
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
People talk sometimes of a bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts a beast can never be so cruel as a man, so artistically cruel. The tiger only tears and gnaws, that's all he can do. He would never think of nailing people by the ears, even if he were able to do it.
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
And though I suffer for you, yet it eases my heart to suffer for you.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If he has a conscience he will suffer for his mistake. That will be his punishment-as well as the prison.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Gambling is a most foolish and imprudent pursuit.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
They won't let me ... I can't be ... good!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
To be too conscious is an illness. A real thorough going illness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
..., twice two is four is not life, gentlemen, but the beginning of death.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
I've long stopped worrying about who invented whom - God man or man God.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If you wish to glimpse inside a human soul and get to know a man ... just watch him laugh. If he laughs well, he's a good man.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
