The Chief Thing is to Love

 "They say: 'He's been dreaming, he's rambling, hallucinations.' Well, what of it? And they're so proud of themselves! Dream? What's a dream? Isn't this life of ours a dream? I'll go further: suppose it never, ever comes true, and there is no paradise (now that I do understand!), well, I'll still go on preaching. And yet how simple a matter it is: in one day, in one hour it could all be brought about, at once! The chief thing is to love others as oneself, that's the main thing, and that's it - absolutely nothing more is necessary: you would immediately discover how to bring it about. And yet it's just the old truth after all - an old truth a billion years ago times repeated and preached, though it fell on stony ground, didn't it? 'The cognition of life is superior to life, the knowledge of the laws of happiness - superior to happiness! - that's what has to be fought against! And I shall. If only everyone desired it, it could all be brought about at once." - Fyodor Dosteovsky, Dream of A Ridiculous Man, Page 127 and 128
