Dostoevsky is one of the greatest novelists of all time and was a true artistic genius.

Asking me to pick out a favourite quote is akin to asking me to pick out my favourite section of the Sistine Chapel. In other words, an impossible task.

Are you quoting the Beastie Boys song? If not, do you know where did that clip happened to come from? I've always wondered.

Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

OP, you do not come to GAF for Doestovsky quotes. This is the best we can do.

Mischka the dog
Lies dead in a bog
The children weep
Over her corpse
The mist covers
Their tears
My heart breaks
With anguish
At least
This Christmas
We eat

Yoda was quoting like Michael Scott on The Office.

 

[Davesky]

I can't find the exact quote but it's at the end of Notes from Underground, something along the lines of society never being able to create a perfect glasshouse because there will always be somebody that comes along just like him that wants to break it down.

The Brothers Karamazov and Crime and Punishment are both filled with great quotes, Dostoevsky's ability to create so many different variations of characters and write about them with such a level of psychological depth is genius.

I don't know any quote, but aren't you guys misspelling his name? Dostoyevsky.

The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone else. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill--he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it.

I never claimed to be well read I dropped out of school after 7th grade to work in the fields so excuse the misspelling. Sorry


Is that contrite enough for you or more?

 

[kurisu_1974]

It's just ironic and I like that. Never read a single Russian author myself so you're more better read than me.

More better indeed.
