Though I do not believe in the order of things, still the sticky little leaves that come out in the spring are dear to me, the blue sky is dear to me, some people are dear to me, whom one loves sometimes, would you believe it, without even knowing why; some human deeds are dear to me, which one has perhaps long ceased believing in, but still honors with one's heart, out of old habit..." --Ivan Karamazov

... the more I learned, the more conscious did I become of the fact that I was ridiculous.

Only live, live, live! - no matter how, only live!

And even if only one good memory is left in our hearts, it may also be the instrument of our salvation one day.
