I regard you as one of those men who would stand and smile at their torturer while he cuts their entrails out, if only they have found faith or God. Find it and you will live. You have long needed a change of air. Suffering, too, is a good thing. Suffer! Maybe Nikolay is right in wanting to suffer. I know you don't believe in it-but don't be over-wise; fling yourself straight into life, without deliberation; don't be afraid-the flood will bear you to the bank and set you safe on your feet again. What bank? How can I tell? I only believe that you have long life before you.
( Fyodor Dostoyevsky )
