Carmen Sylva, the gifted Queen of Roumania, writing to "Die Zeit," Vienna, pays tribute to Tolstoy's sincerity and genius in these words:
"Tolstoy's short stories, of all the works which this great man and artist has written, have made the strongest impression upon me. I regard them as the most perfect tales ever written. In these popular stories a thought of the highest purity reaches us, which to my mind is far more eloquent than the subtlest forms. The highest art is given us, and it will survive all times, like Dante, Shakespeare, the Bible, for here is the Eternal Truth. It surprises me that people speak more about the so-called greater works of Tolstoy than of these little jewels, which are quite unique. If Tolstoy had written nothing but these short stories, he would still have belonged to the greatest men of the world. When writing them he could not have had a base thought, must have been a friend of suffering humanity, and a real Christian."
