Count Tolstoy

Famous quotes containing the words count and/or tolstoy:

    Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity! I say, let your affairs be as two or three, and not a hundred or a thousand; instead of a million count half a dozen, and keep your accounts on your thumb-nail.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To say that a work of art is good, but incomprehensible to the majority of men, is the same as saying of some kind of food that it is very good but that most people can’t eat it.
    —Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)
