More quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Art is not a pleasure, a solace, or an amusement art is great matter.
Leo Tolstoy

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

Leo Tolstoy

Leo Tolstoy
We imagine that when we are thrown out of our usual ruts all is lost, but it is only then that what is new and good begins. While there is life there is happiness. There is much, much before us.
Leo Tolstoy
It is not beauty that endears, it's love that makes us see beauty.
Leo Tolstoy
Pierre was right when he said that one must believe in the possibility of happiness in order to be happy, and I now believe in it. Let the dead bury the dead, but while I'm alive, I must live and be happy.
Leo Tolstoy
Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us.
Leo Tolstoy
it's much better to do good in a way that no one knows anything about it.
Leo Tolstoy
The strongest of all warriors are these two — Time and Patience.
Leo Tolstoy
