Life lessons Quote by Fjodor Dostojevskij
““Vi ne možete zamisliti kakva bol i srdžba vas obuzme kad veliku ideju, koju odavno i visoko poštujete, dohvate nevešti ljudi i izvuku je na ulicu pred glupake kao što su sami, i najedanput je nađete na tržištu stareži, u prljavštini, naopako nameštenu, bez proporcije, bez harmonije- kao igračka kod nerazumne dece- i ne možete više da je poznate !””
