Anton Chekhov Quotes

I Could Not Understand What These Sixty-five Thousand People Lived For, What They Read The Gospel For, Why They Prayed, Why They Read Books And Magazines. What Good Had They Gained From All That Had Been Said And Written Hitherto If They Were Still Possessed By The Same Spiritual Darkness And Hatred Of Liberty, As They Were A Hundred And Three Hundred Years Ago?
So These Sixty-five Thousand People Have Been Reading And Hearing Of Truth, Of Justice, Of Mercy, Of Freedom For Generations, And Yet From Morning Till Night, Till The Day Of Their Death, They Are Lying, And Tormenting Each Other, And They Fear Liberty And Hate It As A Deadly Foe.
