Leo Tolstoy
Writing laws is easy, but governing is difficult.
Leo Tolstoy

Leo Tolstoy
It's hard to love a woman and do anything.
Leo Tolstoy
Every man had his personal habits, passions, and impulses toward goodness, beauty, and truth.
Leo Tolstoy
Ivan Ilych's life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible.
Leo Tolstoy
The possibility of killing one's self is a safety valve. Having it, man has no right to say life is unbearable.
Leo Tolstoy
Many people have ideas on how others should change few people have ideas on how they should change.
Leo Tolstoy
What am I coming for? he repeated, looking straight into her eyes. You know that I have come to be where you are, he said I can't help it.
Leo Tolstoy
A holy spirit lives within you.
Leo Tolstoy
