Leo Tolstoy

Leo Tolstoy
Image
By digging into our souls, we often dig up what might better have remained there unnoticed. Alexis Alexandrovich
Leo Tolstoy
Image
Too much polishing and you spoil things. There's a limit to the expressibility of ideas. You have a new thought, an interesting one. Then, as you try to perfect it, it ceases to be new and interesting, and loses the freshness with which it first occurred to you. You're spoiling it.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
One of the first conditions of happiness is that the link between Man and Nature shall not be broken.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
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
Image
One must be cunning and wicked in this world.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
The improvement of life was only accomplished to the extent to which it was based on a change of consciousness, that is, to the extent to which the law of violence was replaced in men's consciousness by the law of love.
Leo Tolstoy
Image
Why does man have reason if he can only be influenced by violence?
Leo Tolstoy
Image
The best method for a given teacher is the one which is most familiar to the teacher.
Leo Tolstoy

Love does not exist. There exists the physical need for intercourse, and the rational need for a mate in life
Leo Tolstoy

To know God and to live is the same thing. God is Life.
