DOSTOEVSKY, FYODOR
AI have often and repeatedly
prayed on my knees for a pure heart, and for a pure, sinless, calm, dispassionate style.@
(Lowe, 1991, 290)
APeople here are trying with
all their might to wipe me off the face of the earth for the fact that I preach God and
national roots.@
(Ibid, 302)
I place my trust in God.
(Lloyd, P. 191)
My hour has come. I must
die. To his little daughter and son he said: Even if you should be so unhappy
as to commit a crime in the course of your life, never despair of God. You are His
children; humble yourselves before Him as before your father; implore His pardon, and He
will rejoice over your repentance, as the father rejoiced over that of the prodigal son .
(Ibid, P. 199)
