More quotes by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
There are chance meetings with strangers that interest us from the first moment, before a word is spoken.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
To study the meaning of man and of life — I am making significant progress here. I have faith in myself. Man is a mystery: if you spend your entire life trying to puzzle it out, then do not say that you have wasted your time. I occupy myself with this mystery, because I want to be a man.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Russia was a slave in Europe but would be a master in Asia.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Loving someone is different from being in love with someone. You can hate someone you're in love with

The consciousness of life is higher than life.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Every man has some reminiscences which he would not tell to everyone, but only to his friends.
