Leo Tolstoy
-
All happy families resemble one another, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
-
A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite.
-
To say that a work of art is good, but incomprehensible to the majority of men, is the same as saying of some kind of food that it is very good but that most people can't eat it.
-
In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.
-
The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.
