@readingwithnica: Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821–1881) was a Russian novelist, philosopher and journalist, widely regarded as one of the greatest writers in literary history. His life was marked by poverty, imprisonment, a mock execution and exile in Siberia. These experiences deeply influenced his work. Through novels such as Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov and The Idiot, he explored human psychology, guilt, suffering, morality, faith, freedom and the darkest corners of the human soul. His books continue to challenge the way we understand ourselves and the world around us. #quotes #dostoyevski #book #BookTok #fyodordostoevsky

hanns904 :

Sometimes I envy the ones who is shallow in knowledge and narrow in feelings. The pain of knowing too much and feeling too deep is something I have to endure since I was young. Most days I just brushed it off, but sometimes I longed to talk it to ppl who know and feel as deep as I do. Alas, when I found none, I stay silent and keep it to myself, known to people as the quietest person in the room. I am the result of my father's large intelligence and my mother's deep feelings, carrying both as a blessing and a curse. My father approached everything with his head while my mother with her heart, and nothing I do seemed to please both. One says I am too emotional while the other says I am too logical. Hopefully some day I would stumble upon someone who could share the same mind and feelings as I do without making it weird. But where is the fun in life without a little weirdness?

I randomly decided to start Dostoevsky… I am an Austen, Dumas type girlie… I’m only in crime and punishment and it’s been WRECKING my thoughts and I’m so grateful but also so humbled. Count of Monte Cristo is literally my favorite book of all time.I’ve developed a new favorite.

The deepest form of slavery is the hunger to be understood……. I feel like this was extracted from my brain….. I think I’m gonna go back to bed now…

My Father was the only one I could speak to like I do myself. He's gone now, and I have no one. My hope is that when my son get older, we will converse like my father and I used to.

The impact of that first quote… I purposefully try to be what I needed yet wasn’t given. For that to be recognised by someone else is powerful
