    Congratulations on leaving out the best novelist. "ust a single man, Fyodor Dostoevsky, is enough to defeat all the creative novelists of the world. If one has to decide on 10 great novels in all the languages of the world, one will have to choose at least 3 novels of Dostoevsky in those 10. Dostoevsky’s insight into human beings and their problems is greater than your so-called psychoanalysts, and there are moments where he reaches the heights of great mystics. His book BROTHERS KARAMAZOV is so great in its insights that no BIBLE or KORAN or GITA comes close. In another masterpiece of Dostoevsky, THE IDIOT, the main character is called ‘idiot’ by the people because they can’t understand his simplicity, his humbleness, his purity, his trust, his love. You can cheat him, you can deceive him, and he will still trust you. He is really one of the most beautiful characters ever created by any novelist. The idiot is a sage. The novel could just as well have been called THE SAGE. Dostoevsky’s idiot is not an idiot; he is one of the sanest men amongst an insane humanity. If you can become the idiot of Fyodor Dostoevsky, it is perfectly beautiful. It is better than being cunning priest or politician. Humbleness has such a blessing. Simplicity has such benediction."

      @@BooksandLiteratureChannel Yes, if you count the 10 greatest novels, there will have to be 5 by Russians, leaving only 5 for the rest of the world. " Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina, a small but immensely beautiful novel. Anna Karenina is one of my most loved books. How many times I have read it I can’t remember. I mean the number of times - I remember the book perfectly well, I can relate the whole book. If I was drowning in the ocean and had to choose just one novel out of all the millions of novels in the world, I would choose Anna Karenina. It would be beautiful to be with that beautiful book. It has to be read and read again; only then you can feel it, smell it, and taste the flavor. It is no ordinary book. Leo Tolstoy failed as a saint, just as Mahatma Gandhi failed as a saint, but Leo Tolstoy was a great novelist. Mahatma Gandhi succeeded as - and will remain forever - a pinnacle of sincerity. I don’t know of any other man in this century who was so sincere. When he wrote to people ‘sincerely yours’ he was really sincere. When you write ‘sincerely yours’, you know, and everybody else knows, and the person to whom you are writing also knows, that it is all bullshit. It is very difficult, almost impossible, to really be ‘sincerely yours’. That’s what makes a person religious - sincerity. Leo Tolstoy wanted to be religious but could not be. He tried hard. I feel great sympathy with his effort, but he was not a religious person. He has to wait at least a few more lives. In a way it is good that he was not a religious man; otherwise we would have missed Resurrection, War and Peace, Anna Karenina, and dozens more beautiful, immensely beautiful books.. Nobody is more worthy of a Nobel Prize than Leo Tolstoy. His creativity is immense, he was unsurpassed by anyone. He was nominated, but refused by the committee because of his unorthodox stories on Christianity. The Prize committee opens its records every fifty years. When records were opened in 1950, researchers rushed to see whose names were nominated and cancelled and for what reason. Leo Tolstoy was nominated, but never given the prize as he is not an orthodox Christian. Tolstoy is one of Russia’s wisest men of the 20th century and his ideas on non-violence deeply influenced Mahatma Gandhi’s ideology. Mahatma Gandhi declared three persons his master. The first was Leo Tolstoy, the second was Henry Thoreau, and the third was Emerson. Once Leo Tolstoy was asked - How many experiences did you have of divine ecstasy in your life? Tolstoy started crying. He replied - Not more than 7 in my life of 70 years, but I am grateful for those 7 moments and miserable too. In those moments it was evident that is could have been the flavor of my whole life but that didn’t happen. Those moments came and went on their own. But I am still grateful to God that even without any conscious effort on my part, once in a while He has been knocking at my doors."

    I totally get how War and Peace is high on the list, it's a transcendent experience. Don Quixote is every bit as good as the video says it is. I've read most of these but... So far I haven't read UIysses but I've always meant to since I've enjoyed other Joyce works. I may be the only person who's ever read the first two volumes of Lord of the Rings, then bogged down in the third and couldn't finish. I didn't make it all the way through Moby Dick either. I read 1984 twice but will never read it again, it's TOO good in that it evokes a dystopian setting so vividly it's almost traumatic to read. It's too real and too likely to become a literal reality. I'm astonished that Huckleberry Finn didn't appear, i don't even see how that's possible.

    Mega Titan Dragons fossilized bodies = The Drift The author of Ragnarok, over 100 years ago didn't have the Internet (lol). Globe "Planets" with oceans glued to a curved surface ? LOL 😂 Here kids - Earth is a level plane comprised of fossilized flesh. The actual term is called Nucleophilic Substitution, with level Earth the Substrate. Mega titan dragon creatures 🐉🐲died here long ago, and their bodies are now limestone and granite ⛰🏔 mountains, and island chains etc. This type of creature was airborne, fire breathing and it's actual venom is where Crude Oil, Shale, and Coal come from. These Dragons (other creatures) bodies🐉are loaded with the 38 Transition Metals (e.g. - Fe, Au, Ag, Cu etc.) like the Appalachians Mts. 🏔(dragon) 🐉on the East coast USA. "Fossil Fuel" is a correct term like biogenic oil, but there is no true "Jurassic period", just the reality that ancient mega Titan reptilian creatures existed and limestone/granite mountains are the physical remains (Substrate), or here called the Till or Drift. Go to google earth, remove borders and labels, and see the Atlas Mts. in Morocco for a starter dragon (1000 mi. baby), and notice the two colorful blue/red glands which secreted the black venom now called Crude Oil. There's also a 500 mile long fish 🐠 as the Sahara Desert, leaving it's Si Silicon, and SiO2 sands laying next to that dragon as well. The east coast Appalachians/Blue Ridge Mts. are another multi head dragon, a Monster-0 type (lol) leaving shale, coal and the Mexican Gulf it's vast oil (Venom) deposits etc. The north Canadian Rockies are made of at least two separate dragon 🐉🐲 creatures, leaving massive coal and crude oil (venom) deposits in Alaska and Yukon Territories etc. These mega-Titan fire breathing dragon creatures are the stuff of legends, and they are forever part of Earth Plane Topography, the drift (🐉=🏔), and our ancient level Earth's actual History. Now you know where gasoline, and metals for tooling comes from, 🐲🐉! 😉 lol ... Titan Dragons !

It's quite interesting things that you can find when reading the words from the minds of men centuries ago.

      Hi 'Sitchinite420'; Yes I miss Mr. Sitchin too. But at ninety I am sure he was 'ready-to-go'. He could not have been well by that age. I can well imagine the feeling--as I am approaching that age. I live about 6-blocks from "Z.S." and attended his Conferences. He had much to say of which I most definitely do agree. I have read all his books. Some many times. Those who criticize our constant readings forget that we were 'taught' by my/our parents to consistently read the Hebrew bible when we lived in our home. I have been a part of a few purposeful-Sitchin groups and gatherings. You might be envious to learn a serious Sitchin-group, 12-['disciples' ::smiling::: of us took him and his wife to dinner one night at a restaurant on Columbus Ave. He brought each of us chocolates from his recent trip to Switzerland. I now have for decades and still do: read-widely, speak with brevity and listen-intently as did Mr. Sitchin in his wisdom. These days I still research all I can, and continue to write about Sumer and Nibiru, publishing my works in an OnLine Mag: "Medium.com".
