Quote by Leo Tolstoy
English (Source)
Yes, at first it seemed to me that the world was moving in time and I was moving with it, but the older I get and the more my life becomes a spiritual life, the clearer it becomes to me that the world is moving again you stay put. Sometimes you see it clearly, sometimes you fall back into the illusion that you are moving through time. But if you understand that you are immobile, independent of time, you understand not only that it is the world that moves and you stay still, but also that, together with the world, your body also transforms: you turn gray, your teeth fall out, you lose weight, you get sick, but all this happens with your body, with what is not you. And you are the same, always the same: the eight-year-old and the 82-year-old. And the more acutely you are aware of this fact, the more life is transferred outside of you, into the souls of other people.
