Fyodor Dostoevsky
- Crime and Punishment
A strange time began for Raskolnikov: it was as if a fog had suddenly descended in front of him and surrounded him in hopeless and painful isolation.

He was absolutely convinced that at that time he had been wrong about many things, for example, the time and sequence of several events.
