"Leo Tolstoy:
The Philosopher Who Solved the Meaning of Life?"
by The Psyche, 9/25/25
"What if you had everything - fame, fortune, family - and still felt your life was meaningless? This was the haunting reality faced by literary giant Leo Tolstoy. In this profound and emotional journey, we explore how Tolstoy went from existential despair to discovering a radical, soul-stirring answer to the most difficult question of all: What is the meaning of life?"

“At the approach of danger there are always two voices that speak with equal force in the heart of man: one very reasonably tells the man to consider the nature of the danger and the means of avoiding it; the other, even more reasonable, says that it is too painful and harassing to think of the danger, since it is not a man’s power to provide for everything and escape from the general march of events; and that it is therefore better to turn aside from the painful subject till it has come, and to think of what is pleasant. In solitude a man generally yields to the first voice; in society to the second.”
- Leo Tolstoy, “War and Peace”

“All our mortal lives are set in danger and perplexity: one day to prosper,
and the next – who knows? When all is well, then look for rocks ahead.”
- Sophoclese, “Philoctetes”
