Top 10 Best Three Sisters Quotes

#10

 

I often think, what if one were to begin life over again, knowing what one is about! If one life, which has been already lived, were only a rough sketch so to speak, and the second were the fair copy! Then, I fancy, every one of us would feel compelled not to repeat himself, at the very least to rearrange his manner of life.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

How strangely life changes and deceives one!

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

 
#8
 

What seems to us serious, significant and important will, in future times, be forgotten or won't seem important at all.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

Perhaps our age will be called a great one and remembered with respect. Now we have no torture chamber, no executions, no invasions, but at the same time how much unhappiness there is!

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

It goes without saying that you could not vanquish the ignorant masses around you; little by little, as you advance in life, you will be obliged to yield and to be swallowed up in the crowd of a hundred thousand human beings; life will stifle you, but you will all the same not have disappeared without having exerted an influence.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

Do you see that tree? It is dead but it still sways in the wind with the others. I think it would be like that with me. That if I died I would still be part of life in one way or another.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

It seems to me that a man must have faith, or must search for a faith, or his life will be empty, empty.... To live and not to know why the cranes fly, why babies are born, why there are stars in the sky.... Either you must know why you live, or everything is trivial, not worth a straw.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

 
#2
 

Young and old are bound by love, and precious are its pangs.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters

 
#1
 

Time will pass, and we shall go away for ever, and we shall be forgotten, our faces will be forgotten, our voices, and how many there were of us; but our sufferings will pass into joy for those who will live after us, happiness and peace will be established upon earth, and they will remember kindly and bless those who have lived before.

--ANTON CHEKHOV, The Three Sisters
