"Do you remember the letters that you wrote to me?"

" Yes, I remember."

" After I read them I burned them. I thought it best. All except one. You probably know which one I mean".

" Yes I think I do. What about it?"

" It was stolen".

books i’ve read ❥ notes from underground / fyodor dostoevsky

❝ i am a sick man.... i am a spiteful man. i am an unattractive man. i believe my liver is diseased. however, i know nothing at all about my disease, and do not know for certain what ails me. i don’t consult a doctor for it, and never have. i refuse to consult a doctor from spite. i know better than anyone that by all this i am only injuring myself and no one else. but still, if i don’t consult a doctor it is from spite. my liver is bad, well—let it get worse! ❞
