Leo Tolstoy Quotes

Every Man Lives For Himself, Using His Freedom To Attain His Personal Aims, And Feels With His Whole Being That He Can At Any Moment Perform Or Not Perform This Or That Action; But, So Soon As He Has Done It, That Action Accomplished At A Certain Moment In Time Becomes Irrevocable And Belongs To History, In Which It Has Not A Free But A Predestined Significance. There Are Two Sides To The Life Of Every Man: There Is His Individual Existence Which Is Free In Proportion As His Interests Are Abstract; And His Elemental Life As A Unit In The Human Swarm, In Which He Must Inevitably Obey The Laws Laid Down For Him.
