Translation Comparison
Quote by Leo Tolstoy
English (Source)
I address God as a person not only because that is how I was brought up, but I was brought up that way because this way of addressing God is proper to man. I know, or may know, that the sun is a huge mass of hot gases, but I say, I cannot help saying and thinking, that the sun is a bright, warm, yellowish-red circle that appears and disappears behind the horizon line. In the same way, about God I know and can know that He is everything, that He has no edges and limits, but I believe and say, I cannot help saying and not believing, that God is the Father in whose power I am, who is good, he knows me and can help me. And I say: forgive me, God, help me, thank you.
