More quotes by Lev Vygotsky

We cannot help but note that we have come to the same understanding of freedom and self-control that Spinoza developed in his “Ethics.”

From the great creations of Spinoza, as from distant stars, light takes several centuries to reach us. Only the psychology of the future will be able to realize the ideas of Spinoza.

My intellect has been shaped under the sign of Spinoza's words, and it has tried not to be astounded, not to laugh, not to cry, but to understand.

Through others, we become ourselves.
