Fyodor Dostoevsky
A new philosophy, a new way of life, is not given for nothing. It has to be paid dearly for and only acquired with much patience and great effort
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If not reason, then the devil.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Life [had] replaced logic.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Power is given only to him who dares to stoop and take it ... one must have the courage to dare.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
... you simply can't imagine what men will say!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
There is immeasurably more left inside than what comes out in words.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
At first, art imitates life. Then life will imitate art.Then life will find its very existence from the arts.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky
Beauty will save the world
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
It was a wonderful night, such a night as is only possible when we are young, dear reader.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Ah, Misha, he has a stormy spirit. His mind is in bondage. He is haunted by a great, unsolved doubt. He is one of those who don't want millions, but an answer to their questions.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
To crush, to annihilate a man utterly, to inflict on him the most terrible of punishments so that the most ferocious murderer would shudder at it and dread it beforehand, one need only give him work of an absolutely, completely useless and irrational character.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Make us your slaves, but feed us.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
It is not the brains that matter most, but that which guides them — the character, the heart, generous qualities, progressive ideas.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
For the secret of man's being is not only to live but to have something to live for. Without a stable conception of the object of life, man would not consent to go on living, and would rather destroy himself than remain on earth, though he had bread in abundance.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Believe to the end, even if all men went astray and you were left the only one faithful bring your offering even then and praise God in your loneliness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
For men are made for happiness, and any one who is completely happy has a right to say to himself, 'I am doing God's will on earth.'
Fyodor Dostoevsky
If thou love each thing thou wilt perceive the mystery of God in all.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
