More quotes by Maxim Gorky

Maxim Gorky
Politics is the soil in which the nettle of poisonous enmity, evil suspicions, shameless lies, slander, morbid ambitions, and disrespect for the individual grows rapidly and luxuriantly. Name anything bad in man and it is precisely in the soil of political struggle that it grows with particular liveliness and abundance.
Maxim Gorky
Even a bad man is better than a good book.

Maxim Gorky
Our most merciless enemy is our past.
Maxim Gorky
All of us are pilgrims on this earth. I've even heard people say that the earth itself is a pilgrim in the heavens.
Maxim Gorky
The good qualities in our soul are most successfully and forcefully awakened by the power of art. Just as science is the intellect of the world, art is its soul.
Maxim Gorky
God is a complex of ideas formed by the tribe, the nation, and humanity, which awake and organize social feelings and aim to link the individual to society and to bridle the zoological individualism.
Maxim Gorky
This fear is what is the ruin of us all. And some dominate us they take advantage of our fear and frighten us still more. Mark this: as long as people are afraid, they will rot like the birches in the marsh. We must grow bold it is time!
Maxim Gorky
