Perhaps I should've included more of the quote...the point was the immaturity of it and he was known for the asterisk and other doodles. You of all people, I thought, would appreciate the humor.

Fun fact: Im quite fond of Russian authors. Ive read The Brothers Karamazov 3 times. Once in my 20's required in college, once in 30's, and 3 years ago. My appreciation for Faulkner is what got me into Russian Literature.

And yes, I'm a lifelong student of esoteric studies. Although, public discussion and debate about it is not really allowed on the forum.

What's your favorite Dostoevsky work?

Haven't read much of it. But from the looks of it, his words are certainly prophetical.

I read more on Russian history regarding the Tsar Nicolas Romanov/Rasputin period... I have so many books on that subject, personal favorite being the one written by Prince Yusopov himself..

Other than that I mainly read about propaganda.. French philosopher Jacque Ellul is hands down my favorite writer.

With an honorable mention to "Religion of the Teutons" by Pierre Daniel Chantepie de la Saussaye - I need to actually find that book and re-read it. Fantastic book.

I generally prefer French writers, because they question more.

Question more what?

Question more what?

Meaning, they second guess everything. Not take every answer they receive at face value.
