If you wish to improve your life, you must be prepared to sacrifice it.

PHILOSOPHY

It’s much harder to tell the truth than to lie, but it’s hardest of all to stop with one lie and lie no more.

Wise and holy people, the teachers of humanity, simply manifest that which is common to all people. The light they emit is nothing more than the revelation of the power that’s hidden within every human being.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no more visible sign of a person’s success on the path of goodness than when he restrains his anger and refuses to repay an unkind word with an unkind word, or refuses to strike back at a person who’s offended him.

You must never stop learning how to act, speak and think honestly.

The worse people’s lives are, the more they surround themselves with external affectations: fine clothes, temples, palaces, parades, social events, church services, processions, séances, and speeches.

The more compassion there is in a person the better and happier his life is.

“The shortness of life, so often lamented, may be the best thing about it.”

Dostoevsky reading guide 👇

If you relate the truth with anger or passion you won’t convince anyone no matter how obvious to you the truth you’re relating is. Relate the truth with kindness and the stupidest person in the world will understand you.

You must never stop on the path to self-perfection. As soon as you feel more interest in the external world than your soul, you’ve stopped.

Repaying offense with offense is just putting more wood on the fire, but he who meets his offender with peace has already defeated him with peace itself.

PHILOSOPHY

You thrash about, suffer and search for happiness everywhere, but it’s within you. It’s not in people’s love for you, as it appears at first, but in your love for them.

PHILOSOPHY

There is something in the human spirit that will survive and prevail, there is a tiny and brilliant light burning in the human heart that will not go out no matter how dark the world becomes.

Be at peace with all people and do not consider anyone worthless.

He who lives for his soul will never worry about whether people praise or condemn him for what he does.
