"The aim of an artist is not to solve a problem irrefutably, but to make people love life in all its countless, inexhaustible manifestations. If I were told that I could write a novel whereby I might irrefutably establish what seemed to me the correct point of view on all social problems, I would not even devote two hours to such a novel; but if I were to be told that what I should write would be read in twenty years' time by those who are now children and that they would laugh and cry over it, and love life, I would devote all my own life and all my energies to it." --Leo Tolstoy |
