ياإخوتى، لا تحتقروا البشر لخطاياهم، أحبوهم رغم خطاياهم، فبذلك تعرفون المحبة العظمى..وإذا ملأك خبث البشر استياء وألما عنيفا..، حتى صرت تتمنى معاقبة المجرمين إنتقاما، فصن نفسك من هذه العاطفة بكل ما تملك من قوة، وابحث لنفسك عن آلام مباشرة كأنك مسئول عن جرائم هؤلاء الناس أقبل هذه الآلام وتحملها.فذلك يهدئ قلبك ويطمئن نفسك سوف تدرك أنك آثم فعلا، لأنك كنت تستطيع أن تهدئ هؤلاء الناس بالقدوة
Fyodor DostoevskyYou see, Rodya, to my thinking, the great thing for getting on in the world is always to keep to the seasons; if you don't insist on having asparagus in January, you keep your money in your purse!

Fyodor DostoevskyI love the sticky leaves in spring, the blue sky — that’s all it is. It’s not a matter of intellect or logic, it’s loving with one’s inside, with one’s stomach.
Fyodor DostoevskyIf you were to destroy the belief in immortality in mankind, not only love but every living force on which the continuation of all life in the world depended, would dry up at once.
Fyodor DostoevskyIn my opinion, if, as the result of certain combinations, Kepler's or Newton's discoveries could become known to people in no other way than by sacrificing the lives of one, or ten, or a hundred or more people who were hindering the discovery, or standing as an obstacle in its path, then Newton would have the right, and it would even be his duty... to remove those ten or a hundred people, in order to make his discoveries known to mankind. It by no means follows from this, incidentally, that Newton should have the right to kill anyone he pleases, whomever happens along, or to steal from the market every day. Further, I recall developing in my article the idea that all... well, let's say, the lawgivers and founders of mankind, starting from the most ancient and going on to the Lycurguses, the Solons, the Muhammads, the Napoleons, and so forth, that all of them to a man were criminals, from the fact alone that in giving a new law, they thereby violated the old one, held sacred by society and passed down from their fathers, and they certainly did not stop at shedding blood either, if it happened that blood (sometimes quite innocent and shed valiantly for the ancient law) could help them.

I could have done even better, miss, and I'd know a lot more, if it wasn't for my destiny ever since childhood. I'd have killed a man in a duel with a pistol for calling me low-born, because I came from Stinking Lizaveta without a father, and they were shoving that in my face in Moscow. It spread there thanks to Grigory Vasilievich. Grigory Vasilievich reproaches me for rebelling against my nativity: 'You opened her matrix,' he says. I don't know about her matrix, but I'd have let them kill me in the womb, so as not to come out into the world at all, miss.

Aliás, nessa noite não conseguia pensar longa e fixamente em nada, concentrar o pensamento em coisa alguma, tampouco conseguiria resolver, então, conscientemente, o que quer que fosse; a única coisa que fazia era sentir. Em vez da dialética surgia a vida, e na sua consciência devia se elaborar algo totalmente distinto.
Fyodor DostoevskyThere is only one way to salvation, and that is to make yourself responsible for all men's sins. As soon as you make yourself responsible in all sincerity for everything and for everyone, you will see at once that this is really so, and that you are in fact to blame for everyone and for all things.
Fyodor DostoevskyThere are crimes that are truly uncomely. With crimes, whatever they may be, the more blood, the more horror there is, the more imposing they are, the more picturesque, so to speak, but there are crimes that are shameful, disgraceful, all horror aside, so to speak, even far too ungracious...
