Famous Quotes

#1 by TheJournalist
Hello guys, I'm writing a Litrpg and I wanted to use a famous quote by 'Fyodor Dostoevsky' in a skill description. Is there anything I should worry about or something?

As long as its just a quote, I don't see how there could be a problem. Is it something from Crime and Punishment?

The only time there's a problem with using a (even attributed( quote is if you make money off of it. 

If you end up making money from your publication, THAT'S when things get hairy and you might need to get permission.
