there are as many minds as there are heads,
then there are as many kinds of love as there are hearts.”

“This very process of controlling another person's will was a pleasure, a habit and a necessity for Dolokhov, for it was only in the rare moments of his fits of violence and cruelty that Dolokhov forgot himself, otherwise he was always a cool and calculating man who loved more than anything else to despise people and force them to act according to his own will. He had controlled Rostov in this way, and now he controlled Anatole, among so many others, sometimes merely amusing himself with this control to no particular purpose, as if he were simply keeping his hand in.”
