Anton Chekhov Quotes

"The role of the artist is to ask questions, not answer them.""Any idiot can face a crisis; it’s this day-to-day living that wears you out.""Man is what he believes.""Medicine is my lawful wife and literature is my mistress; when I get tired of one, I spend the night with the other.""Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass.""People don't notice whether it's winter or summer when they're happy.""Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.""There is nothing more awful, insulting, and depressing than banality.""Love, friendship, respect, do not unite people as much as a common hatred for something.""You must trust and believe in people or life becomes impossible."
