More From Fyodor Dostoevsky

Mathematics is not only real, but it is the only reality. that is that entire universe is made of matter, obviously. and matter is made of particles. it's made of electrons and neutrons and protons. so the entire universe is made out of particles. now what are the particles made out of they're not made out of anything. the only thing you can say about the reality of an electron is to cite its mathematical properties. so there's a sense in which matter has completely dissolved and what is left is just a mathematical structure.

Whether you believe in god or not does not matter so much, whether you believe in buddha or not does not matter so much; as a buddhist, whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. you must lead a good life. and a good life does not mean just good food, good clothes, good shelter. these are not sufficient. a good motivation is what is needed: compassion, without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers and sisters and respecting their rights and human dignity.

What are works of art for? to educate, to be standards. to produce is of little use unless what we produce is known, is widely known, the wider known the better, for it is by being known that it works, it influences, it does its duty, it does good. we must try, then, to be known, aim at it, take means to it. and this without puffing in the process or pride in the success.
Art Mean Pride
Whether you believe in god or not does not matter much, whether you believe in buddha or not does not matter so much; as a buddhist, whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. you must lead a good life.
Inspirational Buddhist Good Life
It is not given to man to know the whole truth. his duty lies in living up to the truth as he sees it, and in doing so, to resort to the purest means, i.e., to non-violence. god alone knows absolute truth. therefore, i have often said, truth is god. it follows that man, a finite being, cannot know absolute truth. nobody in this world possesses absolute truth. this is god's attribute alone. relative truth is all we know. therefore, we can only follow the truth as we see it. such pursuit of truth cannot lead anyone astray.
Truth Lying Mean
This is an important distinction, because most of the modern philosophies that deny that we can know reality, and ultimately truth, make the mistake of constructing epistemological systems to explain how we know reality without first acknowledging the fact that we do know reality. after they begin within the mind and find they can't construct a bridge to reality, they then declare that we can't know reality. it is like drawing a faulty road map before looking at the roads, then declaring that we can't know how to get from chicago to new york!
