All of us are pilgrims on this earth. I've even heard people say that the earth itself is a pilgrim in the heavens.

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

If it is true that only misfortune can awaken a man's soul, it is a bitter truth, one that is hard to hear and accept, and it is only natural that many people deny it and say it is better for a man to live on in a trance than to wake up to torture.

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

Intellectual force is qualitatively the first and foremost productive force, and concern for its rapid growth should be the ardent concern of all classes.

It is quiet here and restful and the air is delicious. There are gardens everywhere and police spies lie in the bushes. There are nightingales in every garden, but police spies only in mine, I think. They sit under my windows in the darkness of the night and try to get a glimpse of how I spread sedition in Russia.

Politics is the soil in which the nettle of poisonous enmity, evil suspicions, shameless lies, slander, morbid ambitions, and disrespect for the individual grows rapidly and luxuriantly. Name anything bad in man and it is precisely in the soil of political struggle that it grows with particular liveliness and abundance.

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

The poor are always rich in children, and in the dirt and ditches of this street there are groups of them from morning to night, hungry, naked and dirty. Children are the living flowers of the earth, but these had the appearance of flowers that have faded prematurely, because they grew in ground where there was no healthy nourishment.

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

In war it is necessary to kill as many people as possible -- such is the cynical logic of war. Brutality in a fight is unavoidable; have you seen how cruelly children fight in the streets?

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

The higher goal a person pursues, the quicker his ability develops, and the more beneficial he will become to the society. I believe for sure that this is also a truth.

Maxim Gorkiy 86 quotes

Let us not search for the guilty ones only among others, let us speak the bitter truth: we are all guilty ... each and every one of us.

Even a bad man is better than a good book.

When work is a pleasure, life is a joy! When work is a duty, life is slavery.

Only mothers can think of the future - because they give birth to it in their children.

You can't do without philosophy, since everything has its hidden meaning which we must know.

The most beautiful words in the English language are 'not guilty'.

In the carriages of the past you can't go anywhere.

Everybody, my friend, everybody lives for something better to come. That's why we want to be considerate of every man - Who knows what's in him, why he was born and what he can do?
