The ideas of this dirty, ragged old man were a strange hotchpotch. He professed a belief in an absurd theory of morality that – in his own words – 'transcended class'.

I mean the broadening of the channel of the Russian movement which was the necessary consequence of that struggle and which showed us how narrow, abstract, and one-sided were the theories we professed at that time.
Я говорю о том расширении русла русского движения, которое было необходимым следствием этой борьбы и которое показало нам, до какой степени узки, абстрактны и односторонни были исповедуемые нами в то время теории.

All brethren were fully professed religious and one of their functions was prayer, the spiritual value of which was important even if it could not be measured and which certainly brought in wealth through donations and funds for commemorative masses.
Все проживавшие там братья были монахами, некоторые — священниками, и этот их статус приносил доход — в виде пожертвований и заказов заупокойных месс.

The communist revolution of the working class cannot in any way grow out of the petty-bourgeois peasant socialism professed at present by nearly all our revolutionaries.

His wife and all the ladies of his family professed the very latest convictions, but in rather a crude form. It was a case of “an idea dragged forth into the street,” as Stepan Trofimovitch had expressed it upon a former occasion.
Супруга его, да и все дамы были самых последних убеждений, но всё это выходило у них несколько грубовато, именно, тут была "идея, попавшая на улицу", как выразился когда-то Степан Трофимович по другому поводу.
