Prince Dmitri Nekhlyudov quotes

You've got pleasure out of me in this life, and want to save yourself through me in the life to come.

To atone for my sin, not by mere words, but in deed. I have made up my mind to marry you.

And a perfectly new life dawned that night for Nekhludoff, not because he had entered into new conditions of life, but because everything he did after that night had a new and quite different significance than before. How this new period of his life will end time alone will prove.
