“Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Memoir of a Writer 
My 19-year-old brother James has spent the last few months listening to this on audiobook. Me, I’d never have the patience for something this long but my brother seems to be enjoying it. 🙂

My favorite book. I just finished listening to the audio book for the third time. In Slaughterhouse-5, Kurt Vonnegut said everything one needs to know about life is in The Brothers Karamozov.
