Quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky
“— Adoro los tiernos brotes primaverales y el cielo azul. La inteligencia y la lógica no desempeñan en esto ningún papel. Es el corazón el que ama, es el vientre… Amamos las primeras fuerzas de nuestra juventud. ¿Entiendes algo de este galimatías, Aliosha? — Lo comprendo todo perfectamente, Iván. Desearíamos amar con el corazón y con el vientre: lo has expresado a la perfección. Me encanta tu ardiente amor a la vida. A mi entender, se debe amar la vida por encima de todo. — ¿Incluso más que al sentido de la vida? — Desde luego. Hay que amarla antes de razonar, sin lógica, como has dicho. Sólo entonces se puede comprender su sentido.”

Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky was a Russian writer, essayist and philosopher, perhaps most recognized today for his novels Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov.
Dostoyevsky's literary output explores human psychology in the troubled political, social and spiritual context of 19th-century Russian society. Considered by many as a founder or precursor of 20th-century existentialism, his Notes from Underground (1864), written in the embittered voice of the anonymous "underground man", was called by Walter Kaufmann the "best overture for existentialism ever written."
His tombstone reads "Verily, Verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit." from John 12:24, which is also the epigraph of his final novel, The Brothers Karamazov.
