More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
One can often hear from the young people: I do not want to live according to others` mind. I can think of it myself. Why should one think of something, when it is already thought about. Take it and go farther, this is the strength of the mankind.
Leo Tolstoy
There are no conditions to which a man cannot get accustomed, especially if he sees that everyone around him lives in the same way.
Leo Tolstoy
Ivan Ilych's life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible.
Leo Tolstoy
My principal sin is doubt. I doubt everything, and am in doubt most of the time.
Leo Tolstoy
Where is there any book of the law so clear to each man as that written in his heart?
Leo Tolstoy
The ideas of the wise have been tested by centuries. Everything medium is lost and only original, deep and useful things are left.
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
If people tell you that you should live your life preparing for the future, do not believe them. Real Life is found only in the present.
Leo Tolstoy
I think... if it is true that there are as many minds as there are heads, then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts.
Leo Tolstoy
The vocation of every man and woman is to serve other people.
Leo Tolstoy
If Mormonism is able to endure, unmodified, until it reaches the third and fourth generation, it is destined to become the greatest power the world has ever known.
Leo Tolstoy
The role of the disappointed lover of a maiden or of any single woman might be ridiculous but the role of a man who was pursuing a married woman, and who made it the purpose of his life at all cost to draw her into adultery, was one which had in it something beautiful and dignified and could never be ridiculous.
Leo Tolstoy
If you want to be happy, just be.
Leo Tolstoy
Quos vilt perdere dementat' Whome the gods wish to destroy, they first drive made (Latin).
Leo Tolstoy
Whenever my life came to a halt, the questions would arise: Why? And what next?
Leo Tolstoy
Why should I live? Why should I do anything? Is there in life any purpose which the inevitable death that awaits me does not undo and destroy?
Leo Tolstoy
Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.
Leo Tolstoy
Vengeance is mine I will repay.
Leo Tolstoy
Then we should find some artificial inoculation against love, as with smallpox.
Leo Tolstoy
It boils down to this: we should have done with humbug, and let war be war, and not a game ... If there were none of this magnanimity business in warfare, we should never go to war, except for something worth facing certain death for.
Leo Tolstoy
