“Because I'm a Karamazov. Because when I fall into the abyss, I go straight into it, head down and heels up, and I'm even pleased that I'm falling in just such a humiliating position, and for me I find it beautiful.”

“...we are of a broad, Karamazovian nature--and this is what I am driving at--capable of containing all possible opposites and of contemplating both abysses at once, the abyss above us, an abyss of lofty ideals, and the abyss beneath us, and abyss of the lowest and foulest degradation.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“Two abysses, gentlemen of the jury, remember that Karamazov can contemplate two abysses, and both at the same time.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“I was ready to love the whole world, but no one understood me, and I learned to hate.”
― Mikhail Lermontov, A Hero of Our Time
