Fyodor Dostoyevsky Quotes

Alas, Put No Faith In Such A Bond Of Union. Interpreting Freedom As The Multiplication And Rapid Satisfaction Of Desires, Men Distort Their Own Nature, For Many Senseless And Foolish Desires And Habits And Ridiculous Fancies Are Fostered In Them. They Live Only For Mutual Envy, For Luxury And Ostentation. To Have Dinners, Visits, Carriages, Rank And Slaves To Wait On One Is Looked Upon As A Necessity, For Which Life, Honor And Human Feeling Are Sacrificed, And Men Even Commit Suicide If They Are Unable To Satisfy It. We See The Same Thing Among Those Who Are Not Rich, While The Poor Drown Their Unsatisfied Need And Their Envy In Drunkenness. But Soon They Will Drink Blood Instead Of Wine, They Are Being Led On To It. I Ask You, Is Such A Man Free?
