More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
It is not beauty that endears, it's love that makes us see beauty.
Leo Tolstoy
Everything comes in time to him who knows how to wait. There is nothing stronger than those two: patience and time, they will do it all.
Leo Tolstoy
In order to obtain and hold power a man must love it. Thus the effort to get it is not likely to be coupled with goodness, but with the opposite qualities of pride, craft and cruelty.
Leo Tolstoy
Man is meant for happiness and this happiness is in him, in the satisfaction of the daily needs of his existence.
Leo Tolstoy
Enough or not...it will have to do
Leo Tolstoy
With friends, one is well but at home, one is better.
Leo Tolstoy
Everybody wants to change the world, but nobody thinks about changing himself.
Leo Tolstoy
We lost because we told ourselves we lost.
Leo Tolstoy
One of the most obtuse superstitions is the superstition of the scientists who say that man can exist without faith.
Leo Tolstoy
Suddenly I heard the words of Christ and understood them, and life and death ceased to seem to me evil, and instead of despair I experienced happiness and the joy of life undisturbed by death.
Leo Tolstoy
What counts in making a happy marriage is not so much how compatible you are but how you deal with incompatibility.
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
Ivan Ilych's life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible.
Leo Tolstoy
Great works of art are only great because they are accessible and comprehensible to everyone.
Leo Tolstoy
I have now understood that though it seems to men that they live by care for themselves, in truth it is love alone by which they live. He who has love, is in God, and God is in him, for God is love.
Leo Tolstoy
The government in which I believe is that which is based on mere moral sanction...the real law lives in the kindness of our hearts. If our hearts are empty, no law or political reform can fill them.
Leo Tolstoy
Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.
Leo Tolstoy
Rummaging in our souls, we often dig up something that ought to have lain there unnoticed.
Leo Tolstoy
You can love a person dear to you with a human love, but an enemy can only be loved with divine love.
Leo Tolstoy
Pretence about anything sometimes deceives the wisest and shrewdest man, but, however cunningly it is hidden, a child of the meanest capacity feels it and is repelled by it.
Leo Tolstoy
