More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Everything comes in time to him who knows how to wait.
Leo Tolstoy
If once we admit, be it for a single hour or in a single instance, that there can be anything more important than compassion for a fellow human being, then there is no crime against man that we cannot commit with an easy conscience.
Leo Tolstoy
People jump back and forth in pursuit of pleasures only because they see the emptiness of their lives more clearly than they do the emptiness of whichever new entertainment attracts them.
Leo Tolstoy
In former times the chief method of justifying the use of violence and thereby infringing the law of love was by claiming a divine right for the rulers: the Tsars, Sultans, Rajahs, Shahs and other heads of states.
Leo Tolstoy
Power is the relation of a given person to other persons, in which the more this person expresses opinions, theories and justifications of the collective action the less is his participation in that action.
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
A Gentleman is a man who will pay his gambling debts even when he knows he has been cheated.
Leo Tolstoy
I don’t count life as life without love
Leo Tolstoy
Happiness consists of living each day as if it were the first day of your honeymoon and the last day of your vacation.
Leo Tolstoy
The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow- witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him.
Leo Tolstoy
Man has received direct from God only one instrument wherewith to know himself and to know his relation to the universe--he has no other--and that instrument is reason.
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
For if we allow that human life is always guided by reason, we destroy the premise that life is possible at all.
Leo Tolstoy
The political is not compatible with the artistic, because the former, in order to prove, has to be one-sided.
Leo Tolstoy
But the peasants - how do the peasants die?
Leo Tolstoy
I was now prepared to accept any faith so long as it did not demand a direct denial of reason, which would have been a deceit.
Leo Tolstoy
He felt like a man who, after straining his eyes to peer into the remote distance, finds what he was seeking at his very feet. All his life he had been looking over the heads of those around him, while he had only to look before him without straining his eyes. p 1320
Leo Tolstoy
Life did not stop, and one had to live.
Leo Tolstoy
Go take the mother's soul, and learn three truths: Learn What dwells in man, What is not given to man , and What men live by . When thou hast learnt these things, thou shalt return to heaven.
Leo Tolstoy
In spite of death, he felt the need of life and love. He felt that love saved him from despair, and that this love, under the menace of despair, had become still stronger and purer. The one mystery of death, still unsolved, had scarcely passed before his eyes, when another mystery had arisen, as insoluble, urging him to love and to life.
Leo Tolstoy
