Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us. – Leo Tolstoy
Faith is the sense of life, that sense by virtue of which man does not destroy himself, but continues to live on. It is the force whereby we live. – Leo Tolstoy
If there existed no external means for dimming their consciences, one-half of the men would at once shoot themselves, because to live contrary to ones reason is a most intolerable state, and all men of our time are in such a state. – Leo Tolstoy
All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. – Leo Tolstoy
