RE: Dostoyevsky's THE IDIOT Chapter VI & VII - Steemit Bookclub
I like the Prince Myshkin's quote when he says that he is afraid to look at Aglaya because she is too beautiful and that "beauty is a riddle." I remember reading a lot of time the quote "Beauty will save the world", attributed to Dostoyevsky, but "Beauty is a riddle" is even better...
yes! and actually almost every phrase of Myshkin is golden and it can be a perfect quote, his thoughts are so simple but so deep..
