Man is a mystery. It needs to be unravelled, and if you spend your whole life unravelling it, don't say that you've wasted time. I am studying that mystery because I want to be a human being.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Oh, you knew that your deed would be preserved in books, would reach tghe depths of the ages and the utmost limits of the earth, and you hoped that, following you, man, too, would remain with God, having no need of miracles. But you did not know that as soon as man rejects miracles, he will at once reject God as well, for man seeks not so much God as miracles. And since man cannot bear to be left without miracles, he will go and create new miracles for himself.. Oh, there will be centuries of free reason, of their science and anthropophagy.. Freedom, free reason, and science willl lead them into such a maze, and confront them with such miracles and insoluble mysteries, that some of them, unruly and ferocious, will exterminate themselves.

Men are made for happiness, and he who is completely happy has the right to say to himself, 'I am doing God's will on earth.

Je?eli ludzko? Bez wyj?tku raz wyrzeknie si? Boga (..), to sam przez si, bez ludo?erstwa, upadnie ca?y stary?wiatopogl?d, przede wszystkim za, ca?a stara moralno, i nast?pi wszystko nowe. Ludzie zjednocz? Si, by wzi? Od?ycia wszystko, co ono da? Mo?e dla szcz?cia i rado?ci na jednym tylko?wiecie, na tym?wiecie. Cz?owiek wzniesie si? Do boskiej, tytanicznej dumy i zjawi si? Cz?owiek-bóg. Nieustannie pokonuj?c przyrod, ju? Bez granic, wol? Sw? I nauk? Cz?owiek b?dzie odczuwa? W tym rozkosz tak wznios,?e mu zast?pi ona ca?kowicie dawn? Nadziej? Na niebieskie rado?ci. Ka?dy pozna,?e jest?miertelny i nie licz?c ju? Na zmartwychwstanie, powita?mier? Dumnie i spokojnie jak Bóg. Pojmie w dumie swojej,?e nie ma co szemra? Na to,?e?ycie jest chwilk? Tylko i pokocha brata swego ju? Bez?adnego wyrachowania na zap?at?. Mi?o? B?dzie wype?nia?a tylko krótki moment?ycia, lecz samo poczucie jej chwilowo?ci wzmocni jej ogie? Niesko?czenie silniej, ni? Dzi, gdy rozp?ywa si? W nadziejach na mi?o? Pozagrobow? I niesko?czon?..

For everyone now strives most of all to seperate his person, wishing to experience the fullness of life within himself, and yet what comes of all his efforts is not the fullness of life, but full suicide, for instead of the fullness of self-definition, they fall into complete isolation.

- Escute mais isso. Por outro lado, forças jovens, frescas, sucumbem em vão por falta de apoio, e isso aos milhares, e isso em toda parte! Cem, mil boas ações e iniciativas que poderiam ser implementadas e reparadas com o dinheiro da velha, destinado a um mosteiro! Centenas, talvez milhares de existências encaminhadas; dezenas de famÃlias salvas da miséria, da desagregação, da morte, da depravação, das doenças venéreas - e tudo isso com o dinheiro dela. Mate-a e tome-lhe o dinheiro, para com sua ajuda dedicar-se depois a servir toda a humanidade e a uma causa comum: o que você acha, esse crime Ãnfimo não seria atenuado por milhares de boas ações? Por uma vida - milhares de vidas salvas do apodrecimento e da degeneração. Uma morte e cem vidas em troca - ora, isso é uma questão de aritimética.

Reality is infinitely diverse. It resists classification, inward life. Peculiar to us.. Not simply the official existence.
