More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
My principal sin is doubt. I doubt everything, and am in doubt most of the time.
Leo Tolstoy
I don't want to prove anything I merely want to live, to do no one harm but myself. I have the right to do that, haven't I?
Leo Tolstoy
He looked at her as a man looks at a faded flower he has gathered , with difficulty recognizing the beauty for which he picked and ruined it.
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 is not apprehended by reason, but by life.
Leo Tolstoy
Conceit is incompatible with understanding.
Leo Tolstoy
Happiness is in your ability to love others.
Leo Tolstoy
What is important is not the quantity of your knowledge but its quality. You can know many things without knowing the most important.
Leo Tolstoy
Faith is the sense of life, that sense by virtue of which man does not destroy himself, but continues to live on. It is the force whereby we live.
Leo Tolstoy
Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.
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
The political is not compatible with the artistic, because the former, in order to prove, has to be one-sided.
Leo Tolstoy
There can be only one permanent revolution - a moral one the regeneration of the inner man. How is this revolution to take place? Nobody knows how it will take place in humanity, but every man feels it clearly in himself. And yet in our world everybody thinks of changing humanity, and nobody thinks of changing himself.
Leo Tolstoy
Man's mind cannot grasp the causes of events in their completeness, but the desire to find the causes is implanted in man's soul.
Leo Tolstoy
Vengeance is mine I will repay.
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
To regard Christ as God, and to pray to him, are to my mind the greatest possible sacrilege.
Leo Tolstoy
but that what was for him the greatest and most cruel injustice appeared to others a quite ordinary occurrence.
Leo Tolstoy
For man to be able to live he must either not see the infinite, or have such an explanation of the meaning of life as will connect the finite with the infinite.
Leo Tolstoy
Christianity, with its doctrine of humility, of forgiveness, of love, is incompatible with the state, with its haughtiness, its violence, its punishment, its wars
