More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
it is hard for anyone who is dissatisfied not to blame some one else, and especially the person nearest of all to him, for the ground of his dissatisfaction.
Leo Tolstoy
Something magical has happened to me: like a dream when one feels frightened and creepy, and suddenly wakes up to the knowledge that no such terrors exist. I have wakened up.
Leo Tolstoy
Often a man goes on for years imaging that the religious teaching that had been imparted to him since childhood is still intact, while all the time there is not a trace of it left in him.
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
Each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person.
Leo Tolstoy
One can no more approach people without love than one can approach bees without care. Such is the quality of bees.
Leo Tolstoy
Music is love in search of a voice.
Leo Tolstoy
Religions are the exponents of the highest comprehension of life... within a given age in a given society... a basis for evaluating human sentiments. If feelings bring people nearer to the religion's ideal... they are good if these estrange them from it, and oppose it, they are bad.
Leo Tolstoy
Men need only trust in Christ's teaching and obey it, and there will be peace on earth.
Leo Tolstoy
Beautiful as seemed mama's face, it became more lovely when she smiled and seemed to enliven everything about her.
Leo Tolstoy
The essence of any religion lies solely in the answer to the question: why do I exist, and what is my relationship to the infinite universe that surrounds me?
Leo Tolstoy
As soon as man applies his intelligence to any object at all, he unfailingly destroys the object.
Leo Tolstoy
There is something in the human spirit that will survive and prevail, there is a tiny and brilliant light burning in the heart of man that will not go out no matter how dark the world becomes.
Leo Tolstoy
The religious superstition is encouraged by means of the institution of churches, processions, monuments, festivities....The so-called clergy stupefy the masses....They befog the people and keep them in an eternal condition of stupefaction.
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
Nietzsche was stupid and abnormal.
Leo Tolstoy
He is not apprehended by reason, but by life.
Leo Tolstoy
Debates conceal rather than reveal the truth. Truth is revealed in solitude.
Leo Tolstoy
The life of our class, of the wealthy and the learned, was not only repulsive to me but had lost all meaning. The sum of our action and thinking, of our science and art, all of it struck me as the overindulgences of a spoiled child.
Leo Tolstoy
Art is not a pleasure, a solace, or an amusement art is great matter.
