Leo Tolstoy Quotes
Looked Into Remote Space, Where Petty Worldliness Hiding Itself In Misty Distance Had Seemed To Him Great And Infinite Merely Because It Was Not Clearly Seen. And Such Had European Life, Politics, Freemasonry, Philosophy, And Philanthropy Seemed To Him. But Even Then, At Moments Of Weakness As He Had Accounted Them, His Mind Had Penetrated To Those Distances And He Had There Seen The Same Pettiness, Worldliness, And Senselessness. Now, However, He Had Learned To See The Great, Eternal, And Infinite In Everything, And Therefore - To See It And Enjoy Its Contemplation - He Naturally Threw Away The Telescope Through Which He Had Till Now Gazed Over Men's Heads, And Gladly Regarded The Ever-changing, Eternally Great, Unfathomable, And Infinite Life Around Him. And The Closer He Looked The More Tranquil
