I love Ivan for not believing in God and being determined to figure out life and morality without any guidance, on his own for himself. And he’s really honest and unafraid of his own evaluations, he’s not afraid to look right at the world as he sees it and answers his own questions even when he doesn’t like his answers. And this makes him cynical and unromantic because even with his dogmatic and unforgivingly honest perspective, even when he says there’s no god and there’s no right or wrong, all is permitted, even so he finds himself loving life deeply and loving his brothers without being able to justify it. And he always seeks a justification. All is permitted and yet he can see right and wrong. So he’s left with all these questions and doubts, pushing them around on his plate, and trying to justify this undeniable consciousness and love he has. He doesn’t believe there is an answer, he doesn’t believe in order but he tries to make sense of the world, justice, evil and goodness, following only his own mind, he won’t accept anyone else’s conclusions but his own.

“I believe like a child that suffering will be healed and made up for, that all the humiliating absurdity of human contradictions will vanish like a pitiful mirage, like the despicable fabrication of the impotent and infinitely small Euclidean mind of man, that in the world’s finale, at the moment of eternal harmony, something so precious will come to pass that it will suffice for all hearts, for the comforting of all resentments, for the atonement of all the crimes of humanity, for all the blood that they’ve shed; that it will make it not only possible to forgive but to justify all that has happened.” 

‘The Brothers Karamazov’ by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
