Life did not stop, and one had to live. - Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace

"Human science fragments everything in order to understand it, kills everything in order to examine it."

"Life did not stop, and one had to live."

"There is no greatness where there is not simplicity, goodness, and truth."

"Man cannot possess anything as long as he fears death. But to him who does not fear it, everything belongs. If there was no suffering, man would not know his limits, would not know himself."

"It was as if the main screw in his head, which held his whole life together, had become stripped. The screw would not go in, would not come out, but turned in the same groove without catching hold, and it was impossible to stop turning it."
