More From Ivan Turgenev
- "Who among us has the strength to oppose petty egoism, those petty good feelings, pity and remorse?"
- "In the end, nature is inexorable: it has no reason to hurry and, sooner or later, it takes what belongs to it. Unconsciously and inflexibly obedient to its own laws, it doesn’t know art, just as it doesn’t know freedom, just as it doesn’t know goodness."
- "To desire and expect nothing for oneself and to have profound sympathy for others is genuine holiness."
