More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Conceit is incompatible with understanding.
Leo Tolstoy
Never did Christ utter a single word attesting to a personal resurrection and a life beyond the grave.
Leo Tolstoy
Stepan Arkadyevitch had not chosen his political opinions or his views these political opinions and views had come to him of themselves, just as he did not choose the shapes of his hat and coat, but simply took those that were being worn.
Leo Tolstoy
I can’t think of you and myself apart. You and I are the same to me
Leo Tolstoy
All violence consists in some people forcing others, under threat of suffering or death, to do what they do not want to do.
Leo Tolstoy
By digging into our souls, we often dig up what might better have remained there unnoticed. Alexis Alexandrovich
Leo Tolstoy
The military world is characterized by the absence of freedom - in other words, a rigorous discipline-enforced inactivity, ignorance, cruelty, debauchery and drunkenness.
Leo Tolstoy
We should show life neither as it is or as it ought to be, but only as we see it in our dreams.
Leo Tolstoy
Every man had his personal habits, passions, and impulses toward goodness, beauty, and truth.
Leo Tolstoy
The law of violence is not a law, but a simple fact which can only be a law when it does not meet with protest and opposition. It is like the cold, darkness and weight, which people had to put up with until recently when warmth, illumination and leverage were discovered.
Leo Tolstoy
He who has a mistaken idea of life, will always have a mistaken idea of death.
Leo Tolstoy
... a man has to think of his soul before everything else.
Leo Tolstoy
In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.
Leo Tolstoy
Each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person.
Leo Tolstoy
Reason unites us, not only with our contemporaries, but with men who lived two thousand years before us, and with those who will live after us.
Leo Tolstoy
Patriotism is the principle that will justify the training of wholesale murderers.
Leo Tolstoy
Happiness consists of living each day as if it were the first day of your honeymoon and the last day of your vacation.
Leo Tolstoy
No one is satisfied with his position, but every one is satisfied with his wit
Leo Tolstoy
And you know, there's less charm in life when you think about death--but it's more peaceful.
Leo Tolstoy
One may say with one's lips: “I believe that the world was created six thousand years ago” or, “I believe that Jesus flew away into the skies and is sitting on the right hand of the Father” or, “God is One, and also Three” — but no one can believe it, because the words have no sense.
Leo Tolstoy
