More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Honest work is much better than a mansion.
Leo Tolstoy
As soon as man applies his intelligence to any object at all, he unfailingly destroys the object.
Leo Tolstoy
The political is not compatible with the artistic, because the former, in order to prove, has to be one-sided.
Leo Tolstoy
All the true heroes of history will be forgotten and all the villains will be remembered as heroes.
Leo Tolstoy
What doubt can you have of the Creator when you behold His creation?... Who has decked the heavenly firmament with its stars? Who has clothed the earth in its beauty? How could it be without the creator?
Leo Tolstoy
Teach French and unteach sincerity.
Leo Tolstoy
Energy rests upon love and come as it will, there's no forcing it.
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
History, that is to say, the unconscious, universal life of humanity, in the aggregate, every moment profits by the life of kings for itself, as an instrument for the accomplishment of its own ends.
Leo Tolstoy
Life is everything. Life is God. Everything shifts and moves, and this movement is God. And while there is life, there is delight in the self-awareness of the divinity. To love life is to love God. The hardest and most blissful thing is to love this life in one's suffering, in the guiltlessness of suffering.
Leo Tolstoy
He sought his former accustomed fear of death and did not find it. Where is it? What death? There was no fear because there was no death. In place of death there was light.
Leo Tolstoy
Art begins when a man, with a purpose of communicating to other people a feeling he once experienced, calls it up again within himself and expresses it by certain external signs.
Leo Tolstoy
And once he had seen this, he could never again see it otherwise, just as we cannot reconstruct an illusion once it has been explained.
Leo Tolstoy
The only absolute knowledge attainable by man is that life is meaningless.
Leo Tolstoy
All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love.
Leo Tolstoy
... in marriage the great thing was love, and that with love one would always be happy, for happiness rests only on oneself.
Leo Tolstoy
One must put oneself in every one's position. To understand everything is to forgive everything.
Leo Tolstoy
In infinite time, in infinite matter, in infinite space, is formed a bubble organism, and that bubble lasts a while and bursts, and that bubble is Me.
Leo Tolstoy
The time is fast approaching when to call a man a patriot will be the deepest insult you can offer him. Patriotism now means advocating plunder in the interest of the privileged classes of the particular State system into which we have happened to be born.
Leo Tolstoy
The vocation of every man and woman is to serve other people.
Leo Tolstoy
