Fyodor Dostoyevsky Quotes

My Joy Is That There Is No Such World At All, But That The Substance Of Life Is In Everyone! There Is No Reason To Be Troubled Because We Are Absurd, Is There? For We Really Are: We Are Absurd, Frivolous, We Have Bad Habits, We're Bored, We Don't Know How To Look Around Ourselves, We Don't Know How To Understand, We Are All Like This, All Of Us, You, And I, And Everyone! And You Aren't Offended By My Telling You Straight To Your Faces That You Are Absurd? There Is The Basic Stuff Of Life In Your, Isn't There? You Know, I Believe It's Sometimes Even Good To Be Ridiculous. Yes, Much Better. People Forgive Each Other More Readily And Become More Humble, We Can't Understand Everything At Once, We Can't Begin With Perfection! To Reach Perfection There Must First Be Much We Do Not Understand. And If We Understand Too Quickly We Will Probably Not Understand Very Well. I Tell This To You Who Have Been Able To Understand So Much And - Do Not Understand.'
