WHAT MEN LIVE BY – TOLSTOY

1. What dwells in Man?
2. What is not given to Man?
3. What men live by?


‘I have learnt that all men live not by care for themselves, but by Love.

I understood that God does not wish men to live apart, and therefore he does not reveal to them what each one needs for himself; but he wishes them to live united, and therefore reveals to each of them what is necessary for all’.
