When it's one sided but written by Dostoevsky,
“Such fondness, at certain moments, makes the heart cold and the soul heavy.
Your hand is cold, mine burns like fire. How blind you are, Nastenka!”
-White Nights

“People talk sometimes of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to a beast; a beast could never be so cruel as a man, so artistically, artfully cruel.”
-Fyodor Dostoyevsky ( The Brothers Karamazov)
—for I have known you for ages, Nastenka, because I have been looking for someone for ages, and that is a sign that it was you I was looking for—at this moment, a thousand valves have opened in my head, and I must let myself flow in a river of words, or I shall choke.
-Fyodor Dostoevsky (White nights)
For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover.
-Charles Bukowski, Falsely Yours
...and although I suffer for you, I find that even suffering for you is easy.
-Fyodor Dostoevsky, Poor People
The darker the night, the brighter the stars
The deeper the grief, the closer is God.
-Apollon Maykov
The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, so loses all respect for himself and for others.
Fyodor Dostoevsky ( The Brothers Karamazov)
He said 'ily' but Dostoevsky said ,
"...she tortures me, tortures me with her love... In the past it was only that infernal body of hers that tortured me, but now I've taken all her soul into my soul and through her I've become a man."
