Leo Tolstoy
Лев Толстой
Russian novelist · 1828–1910
Leo Tolstoy wrote War and Peace and Anna Karenina on his family estate south of Moscow. In later life he wrote on non-violence and simple living.
All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
Все счастливые семьи похожи друг на друга, каждая несчастливая семья несчастлива по-своему.
Anna Karenina, Part 1, Chapter 1
