Quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Todo hombre consciente de la verdad tiene derecho a reglamentar su vida como le plazca, ajustándola a los nuevos principios. Admitido esto, habrá que admitir también que ese hombre tiene derecho a todo. Es más: incluso aunque esta época no haya de llegar nunca, el hombre nuevo, sabiendo que Dios y la inmortalidad no existen, puede convertirse en un hombre-dios, aun en el caso de que sea el único que viva así. Ese hombre podría hacer caso omiso, sin la menor preocupación, de las reglas tradicionales de la moral, esas reglas a las que el ser humano está sujeto como un esclavo. Para Dios no hay leyes.”

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.
