Leo Tolstoy Quotes
In His Petersburg World People Were Divided Into Two Quite Opposite Sorts. One
the Inferior Sort: The Paltry, Stupid, And, Above All, Ridiculous People Who Believe That A Husband Should Live With The One Wife To Whom He Is Married, That A Girl Should Be Pure, A Woman Modest, And A Man, Manly, Self Controlled And Firm; That One Should Bring Up One's Children To Earn Their Living, Should Pay One's Debts, And Other Nonsense Of The Kind. These Were The Old-fashioned And Ridiculous People. But There Was Another Sort Of People: The Real People To Which All His Set Belonged, Who Had Above All To Be Well-bred, Generous, Bold, Gay, And To Abandon Themselves Unblushingly To All Their Passions And Laugh At Everything Else.
