I also loved the part about Raskolnikov's ideas of Crime and Punishment, though I didn't agree with all of it. And I can't quote it right now because I don't have my book, but I really liked it, so if anyone who knows what I'm talking about wants to quote that part, it kind of ties into this.katrina337https://www.blogger.com/profile/01508255485510068921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16838489.post-90213512709004612752007-09-10T18:02:00.000-06:002007-09-10T18:02:00.000-06:00he- I have the quote, "We prefer to live on other ...he- I have the quote, "We prefer to live on other people's ideas, it's what we are used to!" on my wall. Anyway... <BR/><BR/>I also found myself agreeing with this passage as I read it. To posess knowledge is one thing, but to move beyond it and propose something completely the opposite of it or greater than it is what true wisdom is. Bringing school into it, this is sort of the problem I have with math (one of many). A person can be awesome at a million therories, but they are still just proofs proposed by someone else that now this person is redoing out. Raskonikov is right- even if we act in a mistaken way, we still have acted, and to commit a deed which sets us apart from the masses is what truely establishes a person as great.riverJordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18104227011519280781noreply@blogger.com
