Leo Tolstoy

- Pacifism, vegetarianism, opposition to capital punishment, free discipline in schools, communal living--these are just some of the tenets of this man of peace who left his land and aristocratic standing to become a shoe-maker and make all men his brothers. He found the ethical notions he sought in the New Testament: freedom, brotherhood, peace, love. If he notably failed to realize them in his own domestic life that was one of his particular ironies for his dreams live on.
