Reminds me of that Japanese adage about being prepared when confronted with adversity: “It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.”

You'll be just as timeless as the greats, Doctor Peterson.

The Brothers Karamazov has been one of the most incredible books I have ever read in terms of delving through the inner psychologies of various characters that have starkly different viewpoints on life and self. I wrote my psychology degree capstone paper on Dostoevsky's work. In doing so I researched his life thoroughly. He has an incredible story, and I would highly recommend that anyone with an interest in his work also look into his actual life. I also posited in that paper that perhaps his wife helped him to do more than simply transcribe his works. I think that she may have played a critical role in helping him to explore the female psychology in his writing.

Yup, under control. Temperance and choosing battles wisely.
Enjoy the calm before a great storm.

Also just finished the Brothers Karamazov (like many people in the comments). The main thing I took away from that is how Ivan, who claims to be the atheist materialist, realizes that although he did not physically murder his father, he did commit the murder in his heart, since he wanted his father dead. I can’t help but think about this same concept that Jesus talks about: “if you hate your neighbor, you have committed murder”. I’m sure Dostoyevsky had this in mind when he put together the plot.

"Death and the Dervish" (1966) by Mese Selimovic is also up there in that ballpark.

I finished watching Schindler’s List last night. What JP said about being capable of cruelty parallels with what Schindler’s definition of true power was, when he spoke to Amon.

Brothers Karamazov saved my life, thank you Lord Jesus

[markberman]

Read everything he wrote before I was 19... so much remembered and forgotten.

[tomasoliveira]

I read notes from the underground, and it didn't "messed" with me, maybe im dumb, but, I didn't got provoked by it. I kept reading it becase his writing is so fluid.

[sixwingsram]

The Brothers Karamazov is a wonderful and epic story.

[RileyWah]

I have in fact never heard a single other writer ever referenced by Jordan Peterson than Dostoevsky so he must be mind blowing

[OmarZein-ybcm]

[JasmineDaisy]

Crime and punishment was quite the thriller! Nothing like Ann Ran
