Author of quotes: Vladimir Sergeyevich Solovyov

Man is a social being, and the highest work of his life, the ultimate goal of his efforts lies not in his personal destiny, but in the social destinies of all mankind.

Before God's supreme truth, every self-made truth is a lie, and trying to impose this lie on others is a crime.

Life of nature is a deal between death and immortality.

Though the best minds are engaged in so-called proofs of God, but to no avail; for all these proofs can not give unconditional reliability. As the existence of the external world and the existence of the Divine to the mind are only probabilities or conditional truth, is certainly to be approved can only correct.
As external nature is only gradually revealed to the mind of man and mankind, whereby we must talk about the development experience and science and the Divine principle gradually revealed to human consciousness, and we need to talk about the development of religious experience and religious thinking.

Philosophy freed human identity from external violence, and gave her content.

All is one is the first word of philosophy, and this word was first vasimalai human freedom and brotherly unity. This word fundamentally undermined the religious and social slavery, destroyed all the inequality and isolation.

Death and Time reign on earth,
You don't call them lords;
All circling, disappear in the darkness,
Motionless, only the sun of love.

Dear friend, or you don't see
That all appears to us -
Only the reflection, only shadows
From invisible eyes?
Dear friend, or you can't hear
What everyday noise crackling -
Only response garbled
Triumphant harmonies.

And the power of the mind and law
Mankind began -
Erected the West's power,
The world and Rome unity gave.
What else was lacking?
Why the whole world again in the blood?
- Soul of the universe longed
The spirit of faith and love!
And the prophetic word is not false,
And the light from the East shone,
That was impossible,
He proclaimed and promised.
<...>
O Rus! in the anticipation high
You thought Gord is busy;
What I want to be the East:
The East of Xerxes or of Christ?

The day passed with vanity merciless.
Around me blessed peace,
And in my heart you alone darling,
You're one inseparable soar.
All the impulses and feelings of the rebellious,
The evil life that was boiling in the blood,
Swallowed by the boundless desire
Fatal selfless love.

Nature with its beauty
Cover doesn't allow to remove
And you machine would not force her,
What your spirit can not guess.

The purpose of law is not to lie in the evil world turned into the Kingdom of God, but only that he is not turned into hell.
