Life everywhere is life, life is in ourselves and not in the external. There will be people near me, and to be a human being among human beings, and remain one forever, no matter what misfortunes befall, not to become depressed, and not to falter – this is what life is, herein lies its task.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Part 2 of Madame Khokhlakova being the biggest hater of Katerina's engagement

I got this shit on my FYP and instead of getting angry I decided to turn it into something that makes me happy.

Just realized that Alyosha being asked multiple times through the novel by different people why are you looking at me like that/what's up with that expression implies he's the type of person who can't control his facial expressions and "talks with his face" and I think that's beautiful

Above all, do not lie to yourself. A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others. Not respecting anyone, he ceases to love, and having no love, he gives himself up to passions and coarse pleasures, in order to occupy and amuse himself, and in his vices reaches complete bestiality, and it all comes from lying continually to others and to himself.
