"Everything passes, only truth remains...." - Quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky

“To cook your hare you must first catch it.”

“I did not bow down to you, I bowed down to all the suffering of humanity.”

“There is no explaining anything by reasoning and so it is useless to reason.”

“Nowadays, saying what you really think can be a serious error since one risks being misunderstood.”

“Surely what a man does when he is taken off guard is the best evidence for what sort of man he is. If there are rats in a cellar, you are most likely to see them if you go in very suddenly. But the suddenness does not create the rats; it only prevents them from hiding. In the same way the suddenness of the provocation does not make me ill tempered; it only shows me what an ill-tempered man I am.”

“Historians relate not so much what is done as what they would have believed.”

“The vanishing, volatile froth of the present which any shadow will alter, any thought blow away, any event annihilate, is every moment converted into the adamantine.”

“My attitude is tattooed that means it's permanent”

“What is once well done is done forever.”
