@theartinline: Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) was a Russian novelist and philosopher known for exploring human suffering, morality, faith, and the psychological depth of the human mind. Dostoevsky suggests that most people avoid harsh truths because truth can be paintul and uncomfortable. Instead, they prefer ideas that make them feel safe and emotionally satisfied, even if those ideas are not completely true. People often choose comforting illusions over difficult realities. Franz Kafka (1883-1924) was a Czech writer famous for portraying alienation, anxiety, and the absurd struggles of human existence. Kafka expands this idea by saying that reality itself can feel too heavy for people to face. Because of that, they create illusions and temporary comforts to escape it. These illusions become a substitute for happiness, even though deep down they know it is not real. #quotes #deepquotes #philosophy #asthetic #artinline
