More quotes by 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
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
I don't allow myself to doubt myself even for a moment.
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
… for nightinggales - we know - can’t live on fairytales.
Leo Tolstoy
Money is a new form of slavery, and distinguishable from the old simply by the fact that it is impersonal - that there is no human relation between master and slave.
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 higher a man's conception of God, the better will he know Him. And the better he knows God, the nearer will he draw to Him.
Leo Tolstoy
Vengeance is mine I will repay.
Leo Tolstoy
I'll tell you truly: I value my thought and work terribly, but in essence - think about it - this whole world of ours is just a bit of mildew that grew over a tiny planet. And we think we can have something great - thoughts, deeds! They're all grains of sand
Leo Tolstoy
People look like rivers very much: water is everywhere the same, but the rivers are narrow, fast, wide, pure, cold, muddy and warm. The people are the same. They have the rudiment of every human habit in them and they behave according to them. Sometimes they even do not look like themselves, but they still stay whatever they are.
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
Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.
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
And the cause of everything is that which we call God.
Leo Tolstoy
We are all created to be miserable, and that we all know it, and all invent means of deceiving each other. And when one sees the truth, what is one to do?
Leo Tolstoy
It is not beauty that endears, it's love that makes us see beauty.
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
Whatever question arose, a swarm of these drones, without having finished their buzzing on a previous theme, flew over to the new one and by their hum drowned and obscured the voices of those who were disputing honestly.
Leo Tolstoy
Often a man goes on for years imaging that the religious teaching that had been imparted to him since childhood is still intact, while all the time there is not a trace of it left in him.
