Not many people in the West know this, but classical Russian philosophy,
Berdyayev, Rozanov, Solovyov, those guys, is pretty interesting. Heavy
influece of German Idealism. Rozanov shares some parallels with Nietzsche,
and is famous for once having said, "A hundred-year-old tree is worth more
than any famous human life, and I refuse to cut them down to pay for
treatment for the peasants' cholera!"
