“I know that you don’t believe this- but don’t philosophize too subtly; plunge straight into life, without deliberation; don’t be uneasy- it will carry you direct to the shore and set you on your feet. What shore? How should I know? I simply believe that there is still much life before you.”
-Fyodor Dostoevsky, “Crime and Punishment”


“For almost a minute they looked at one another in silence. Razumikhin remembered that minute all the rest of his life”
