A PloughmanIlya Repin (1844-1930), A Ploughman, Leo Tolstoy Ploughing, 1887

The actions of the laboring people,

of those who create life,

began to appear to me as the one true way.

I realized that the meaning

providing by this life was truth,

and I embraced it.

— Leo Tolstoy, from CONFESSION
