But why does it always hurt?  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) ... the unarmed power of naked truth  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) We’re all time’s captives, hostages to eternity  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) The last moments slipped by, one by one, irretrievable  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) A literary creation can appeal to us in all sorts of ways-by its theme, subject, situations, characters. But above all it appeals to us by the presence in it of art. It is the presence of art in Crime and Punishment that moves us deeply rather than the story of Raskolnikov’s crime  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) I am caught like a beast at bay. Somewhere are people, freedom, light, But all I hear is the baying of the pack, There is no way out for me  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) I am alone; all drowns in the Pharisees’ hypocrisy.

That is why people write symphonies, and why they discover mathematical infinity and electromagnetic waves  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) It’s only in bad novels that people are divided into two camps and have nothing to do with each other. In real life everything gets mixed up! Don’t you think you’d have to be a hopeless nonentity to play only one role all your life, to have only one place in society, always to stand for the same thing?--Ah, there you are! - Larissa Fyodorovna in Doctor Zhivago.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) In this era of world wars, in this atomic age, values have changed. We have learned that we are guests of existence, travelers between two stations. We must discover security within ourselves  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) Man is born to live, not to prepare for life  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) Even so, one step from my grave, I believe that cruelty, spite, The powers of darkness will in time Be crushed by the spirit of light.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) No single man makes history. History cannot be seen just as one cannot see grass growing.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) I don’t like purely philosophical works. I think a little philosophy should be added to life and art by way of seasoning, but to make it one’s specialty seems to me as strange as eating nothing but horseradish. - Lara, from Doctor Zhivago  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) That’s metaphysics, my dear fellow. It’s forbidden me by my doctor, my stomach won’t take it.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) I used to be very revolutionary, but now I think that nothing can be gained by brute force. People must be drawn to good by goodness.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) Work is the order of the day, just as it was at one time, with our first starts and our best efforts. Do you remember? Therein lies its delight. It brings back the forgotten; one’s stores of energy, seemingly exhausted, come back to life.  (Boris Pasternak Quotes) Immensely grateful, touched, proud, astonished, abashed  (Boris Pasternak Quotes)
