Selected quotes by author Fedor Dostoevsky:
"Beauty will save the world."
"Art is such a human need, as the need to eat and drink. The need for beauty and creativity, which embodies it, is inseparable from man, and without it, man, perhaps, would not want to live in the world."
"One should love life more than the meaning of life."
"That I will achieve nothing, that the calculation will be wrong, that I will break out and fail, anyway I go. I go because I want to."
