Quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky
“但是他说，彼时对他说来最难受的莫过于这样一个持续不断的念头：‘如果不死该多好哇！如果能把生命追回来，——那将是无穷尽的永恒！而这个永恒将全都属于我！那时我会把每一分钟都变成一辈子，一丁点儿也不浪费，每一分钟都精打细算，决不让光阴虚度！’他说，这个念头终于变成一股强烈的怨愤，以致他只希望快些被枪决。”

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.
