Leo TolstoySeize the moments of happiness, Love and be Loved! That is the only reality in the world, all else is folly!
About This Quote
The greatest gift we can give to the world is the gift of our time and energy, to love and be loved! This is the only reality in the world, all else is folly! Just as a stream of water may be dammed up, so too can a man be cut off from his past. If you are raised to believe that all men are created equal, it will be very difficult to accept that you will one day be treated as less than equal.
