Fyodor Dostoevsky Quote

What people fear most is taking a new step, uttering a new word...

I believe in eternal life in this world, there are moments when time suddenly stops to give way to eternity.

True pain, the kind that makes us suffer deeply, sometimes makes even the thoughtless man serious and steady; even the poor in spirit become wiser after great pain.

Brothers, do not fear the sin of men; love the man even in his sin, for such love resembles God.

Man takes pleasure in listing his sorrows, but does not list his joys.

Woman, only the devil knows what she is; I do not know at all.

The secret of existence does not only consist of living, but in knowing what one lives for.

And besides, what am I going to dream of when, not in dreams, but awake, I have been so happy by your side!

Your worst sin is that you have destroyed yourself and betrayed yourself for nothing.

Only live once, and I don't want to wait for that universal happiness. Above all, I want to live. If I didn't feel this desire, it would be better not to have a life.

Sometimes it happens to us that people we don't know inspire a sudden interest in us when we see them for the first time, even before exchanging a word with them.
